Full description
An experience package with one thing in common:love of horses!
Take part in a 30-minute riding lesson to learn the basics of the discipline and venture out on a ride with a horse-riding guide to explore the Stirone Park and the surrounding hills for over 2 hours.
Halfway through, you will toast a wine tasting in a wine cellar: passion will not be lacking here either!
What we will do
I will be waiting for you 30 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Case La Bocca, near Salsomaggiore Terme (PR). To welcome you you will find me, your equestrian guide!
After an initial welcome and gathering of all participants, we will meet the horses and enter the field where you will have a riding lesson of approximately 30 minutes. On this occasion, I will teach you the basics of the discipline and provide you with all the information you need to enjoy the experience afterwards without any worries.
Once you have gained confidence in the saddle, we will leave the camp to venture out for a ride. We will ride in the Stirone Park, a nature reserve established following the discovery of fossils of minke whales that once inhabited the 'ancient sea' that covered the area. We will ride on hillside paths, with views of the Stirone and Ongina Valleys. Halfway along we will stop at an agriturismo with a wine cellar that will host us for a wine tasting (included): we will be able to enjoy at least 3 glasses of local wines accompanied by snacks. We will get back in the saddle to return to the meeting point, along a route over mixed terrain that alternates between paths and paved country roads.
The horseback ride will last 2 hours and 15 minutes, during which we will cover approximately 20 km. The experience will last a total of 3 hours and 45 minutes.
