Full description
Learn to ride a horse and enjoy a day in contact with nature in the woods of the Lurisia valley, in Roccaforte Mondovì, in the province of Cuneo.
In the morning you will have a theoretical and practical lesson on the fundamentals of horse riding and , after a typical lunch, you will mount your steed for a pleasant excursion to Monte Olocco, where evocative landscapes await you.
Rely on our equestrian guides for a fun and relaxing experience in total safety.
What we will do
The appointment is at 9.30 a. m. at the riding school in Lurisia Terme, a hamlet of Roccaforte Mondovì (CN). After the welcome and due introductions, we will familiarise ourselves with the horses and begin with the activities planned for the morning.
We will carry out theoretical and practical lessons in equestrian technique, first at the riding school and then in an excursion environment. We will acquire the fundamentals, which we will then put into practice during theguided excursion in the afternoon.
We will have lunch in an affiliated establishment where we will be able to sample traditional Piedmontese and Occitan dishes. Afterwards, we will get into the saddle to ride on the beautiful trails that will take us to Monte Olocco, which offers a beautiful panoramic view of the surrounding valleys.
Around 17:30 we will be back at the stables and we will say goodbye to the horses, wishing to see them again soon for a new adventure!
