Full description
Immerse yourself in the lush Mediterranean maquis of the Montioni Natural Park on horseback. After an initial briefing with theinstructor, you will begin your ride with an itinerary of approximately 10 km.
You will tackle the park's trekking routes, alternating between flat stretches and small hills, regenerating yourself in contact with the nature of the Val di Cornia. The greatest thrill will be spotting the Gulf of Piombino in the distance from a vantage point along the way.
We look forward to seeing you in the saddle!
What we will do
We will meet at the stables in Suvereto (LI), at the time chosen for the excursion.
Here we will get acquainted with our guide and be assigned a horse. Immediately afterwards, a short briefing will begin during which we will learn the basics of how to handle the horse and how to ride it English or American style.
After the briefing, which lasts about ten minutes, we will be ready to get on the saddle and tackle our 8 to 10 km long ride. We will head for the Montioni Natural Park, a green area covering 7,000 hectares and comprising four municipalities. We will move along a series of trekking routes dominated by Mediterranean scrub, with strawberry trees, cork trees and stypa bushes typical of the Maremma area.
We will start with a flat stretch and then arrive in the hills, with a difference in altitude of about 150 metres. We will also stop at a panoramic spot, from which it is possible on clear days to catch a glimpse of the Gulf of Piombino.
Finally, we will return to the stables through the beautiful Val di Cornia countryside. The walk lasts 2 hours.
Who it is aimed at
The walk is also suitable for beginners and requires no specific skills. Minors aged 14 years and under may participate, accompanied by an adult.
For the welfare of the horses, there is a weight limit of 100 kg.
