Quinta do Almargem has participated in many international endurance competitions and sponsored some.

In parallel to our successful sport horses breading and competitions, in 2010 we initiated another prestigious activity, that as an increasing acceptance both national and international, consisting in horseback riding out in the untouched country side of Serra de Grândola.
