Full description
Immerse yourself in the evocative natural setting of Etna Park by participating in our horseback ride!
In the company of an equestrian guide, venture along a wooded path among centuries-old trees. You will not miss a visit to the Grotta dell'Angelo (Angel's Cave ) and the Piano dei Gelsi (Mulberry Grove), our goal, which will reward us with an exclusive view of Mount Etna.
An experience lasting a total of 2 hours, but of which you will keep the memory of the landscape forever!
What we will do
I will be waiting for you at the appointed location 10 minutes before the booking time.
As an equestrian guide, I will explain the basics of horse riding to you. After about 20-30 minutes we will set off on our walk through the forest.
I will accompany you on my horseback and we will venture along a forest path of about 4/6 km, along which we will be able to observe the centuries-old trees growing in the area; we will encounter a mulberry tree and a 1,000-year-old chestnut tree! We will dismount to visit on foot the Grotta dell'Angelo (Angel's Cave ) made of lava stone, an unmissable natural attraction in the area.
Our English-mounted walk will finally lead us to the Piano dei Gelsi, which offers an exclusive panoramic view of Mount Etna.
The excursion will last 1.5 hours; the experience will last a total of 2 hours.
