Sports / Fitness / Recreation / Equestrian sports | | Spanish term or phrase: caballo campero | Hello. From an interview with the organiser of an endurance ride competition (Spain).
"Nunca he sido un gran jinete, pero adoro la sensación de adentrarme en la naturaleza a lomos de un buen caballo campero".
The endurance ride ('raid' in Spanish) is a competitive race involving daily stages of 70 or so kilometres on rural tracks.
Thanks for your help :) |

5 hrs confidence: cow pony
Explanation:
Given Sandra's explanation of the meaning, this is what they are called in the US West, but of course, that may not be the best translation for your context. "Sure-footed" seems better to me ...
per Merriam-Webster's: cow pony: a light saddle horse trained and used for herding cattle
