Caracole information


The caracole or caracol (from the Spanish caracol - "snail") is a turning maneuver on horseback in dressage[1] and, previously, in military tactics.

In dressage, riders execute a caracole as a single half turn, either to the left or to the right, representative of the massed cavalry tactic of caracole previously used in the military.
