Full description
We introduce you to our furry family. And we can't wait to meet yours!
Join the whole family for a nature and animal experience in Calenzano: you will meet friendly ponies and horses and experience the unique thrill of riding in the saddle. Followed by a tasty snack.
A 2-hour experience that will remain in the hearts of young and old alike!
What we will do
The appointment is 10 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Calenzano (FI) . On site you will meet the riding instructor who will accompany you on this adventure!
On arrival, you will make the acquaintance of Cisco the pony and the horses Caterina and Lele. You will learn to approach the animal with respect, cleaning it, brushing it (and stealing a few cuddles) . This part lasts about 15 minutes.
You will then mount the saddle and experience the unique thrill of riding a pony or horse! This will be followed by a short ride on a pony or horse, either on the property or in the surroundings at the instructor's discretion. Adults and children will ride at different times to ensure proper support from the instructor; each participant will be involved even when it is not their turn to ride. This part lasts about 20 minutes.
And finally, a tasty snack for all: pizzas, schiacchiatine, sweets and other snacks accompanied by water, fruit juices and other non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks.
The experience lasts about 2 hours in total.
