Full description
Get ready to ride inside a postcard!
Get on the saddle and explore the green landscapes of the Crete Senesi, among woods, hills, farmhouses and small villages. With an equestrian guide at your side, you will enjoy a one-and-a-half-hour riding experience.
It doesn't matter if it's your first time or your hundredth time on horseback: the views of Tuscany will steal your heart!
What we will do
We will meet in Buonconvento (SI), 10 minutes before the indicated time.
After being welcomed by our equestrian guide, we will begin with a visit to the paddocks, where we will get to know the horses and discover the characteristics of each one. We will then participate in a briefing of about 20 minutes in which we will be assisted in putting on the saddle and learn the main commands.
Once ready, we will begin our ride through the green Crete Senesi. Our itinerary will alternate between flat stretches and slight inclines, immersed in the quietness of the Tuscan countryside, with splendid views of the fields, the surrounding hills and the Val d'Arbia. The guide will precede us on horseback, giving us advice and instructions along the way for a better experience.
We will ride through forests, farmhouses and small country hamlets, such as Bufa, proceeding at pace over beaten and unpaved terrain for about 5 km. At the end of our loop, we will return to the starting point.
The activity will last a total of one and a half hours, including the briefing.
