Full description
Venture out on the Valchiusella's first certified bridle path on a horseback excursion of great scenic charm.
In the company of an expert equestrian guide, you will ride along a 16 kmloop that stretches over Mount Bossola, from which it takes its name, with the town of Rueglio in the background. You will then have lunch at the Bossola Refuge, an oasis of peace and tranquillity set in the beautiful mountain landscape.
What we will do
The appointment is at 10 a.m. at the pre-established meeting point, near Rueglio. We will be welcomed by a professional equestrian guide who will accompany us on our tour. After a brief review of riding techniques and safety rules, our horseback ride will finally begin.
The route, nationally certified and mapped, is the first Canavese horse trail. It covers approximately 16 km along mountain relief up to 600 metres, winding along Monte Bossola. Along the way, we will ride along nature trails and ancient mule tracks, on the slopes of this beautiful natural terrace overlooking the Torinese plain.
About halfway along the route, we will make a stop at the Bossola Refuge, where we will be able to enjoy authentic home cooking, with typical, zero-kilometre products. The horses will also have the opportunity to refresh themselves, thanks to the various watering holes present.
Afterwards, we will resume our walk back to the starting point.
The activity lasts approximately 6 hours (including lunch break).
