Full description
A ranch in the middle of a green valley, beautiful and tame horses and a one-hour ride in the hills of Bologna: the elements are all there for a truly memorable horse riding adventure.
Join us for a one-hour ride in the woods of Pianoro, in the province of Bologna. Here, amidst laughter and first riding lessons, you will experience unforgettable moments together with your favourite animal.
We are waiting for you!
What we will do
We will meet at the ranch in Pianoro (BO), at the time selected when booking. The ranch is located in a green valley, from which many nature trails start.
On arrival, we will meet the guide who will introduce us to our adventure companion. Let's get ready to brush and saddle him together!
After familiarising ourselves with the animal, we will mount the saddle and take a few laps around the arena. The guide will teach us the basic commands to handle the horse and make us feel comfortable in the saddle, especially if it's our first time riding.
We will then leave the ranch and ride into the lush nature. We will ride for 45 to 50 minutes in the woods of Pianoro, among chestnut trees and imposing oaks. Ourpace will allow us to observe the local flora and fauna at its best, including birds, squirrels and foxes.
Finally, we return to the starting point. Between briefing and horseback riding, the activity lasts approximately 1 hour.

The activity is open to everyone from the age of 14. No previous horse riding experience is required.
