Full description
Experience your passions in the open air: we are waiting for you for a 1-hour horse ride in the heart of the Syracuse countryside.
On a flat route, completely surrounded by nature, you will experiencepacing in the saddle of docile horses. Among landscapes dominated by greenery and mountains, have fun fording a former river and let yourself be immortalised in a souvenir photo.
And if you've never ridden a horse? No problem: an equestrian guide will always be there to assist you with advice and technical knowledge.
So, are you ready to saddle up?
What we will do
We will meet 15 minutes before the time chosen during the booking process at the Syracuse riding school.
After a few minutes devoted to welcoming the participants and getting to know the horses, we will give a briefing to explain how to hold the reins and all the basics needed to carry out the activity. We will then climb into the saddle of the gentle horses to begin the walk.
We will move at pace to immerse ourselves in the heart of the Syracuse countryside, in a landscape dominated by greenery and the surrounding mountains. Those already familiar with the various gaits will also experience trotting and galloping, always under the careful supervision of our equestrian guide.
We will ride along flat stretches and enter the bed of a former river, now dry, and throughout the ride souvenir photos will be taken, which will be sent to participants on Whatsapp as a memento of the experience.
After completing a full loop, we will return to the riding stables at the end of the one-hour walk.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for everyone, even beginners, from the age of 14.
If authorised by a parent, children from 6 years of age can also participate: they will be accompanied by the guide with a lanyard or will proceed close to the parent.
