Full description
In the bucolic scenery of the Ticino Park, on the outskirts of Milan, an exciting 2-hour horse riding adventure awaits you.
You will ride in the company of an equestrian guide through the beautiful woods of the Park, tackling different types of trails. You will also visit anisland that can only be reached on horseback.
This horseback ride is intended for riders with experience in the three gaits: stride, trot and gallop.
What we will do
The appointment is at Cascina Padregnana, a hamlet in the municipality of Robecchetto con Induno (MI). Upon arrival, we will be welcomed by the equestrian guides who will introduce us to the splendid trained horses.
Before getting on the horse, we will quickly go over riding techniques and safety rules. The excursion will take place within the Ticino Park, a protected natural area that stretches along the river banks and provides a natural habitat for many animal and plant species.
Riding in tranquillity, we will penetrate into the woods and along the river bank. All along the route we will hear stories, curiosities and information about the environment from the guides. We will also visit anisland within the park that can only be reached on horseback.
In total, the activity will last about 2 hours.

This activity is of medium level and is aimed at riders with experience in the three gaits: gait, trot and gallop.
