What we will do
After meeting with the equestrian guide at the riding school near Perugia, we will saddle the horses to become familiar with the animal. We will have a short theoretical lesson on preparing the horse, basic commands and safety measures.
Once ready, we will go out into the riding arena for a trial ride under the guide's supervision for about twenty minutes. We can then go out for a horseback ride.
In the guide's company, we will ride through the beautiful Umbrian hills where we will enjoy landscapes characterised by vineyards, olive groves, broom slopes and woodland paths. Immersed in this bucolic scenery, we will admire small medieval villages in the distance, such as Solomeo.
At the end of the walk, we will return to the riding stables. The experience will last a total of 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for everyone from the age of 14.
Itis not necessary to have previous experience on horseback: the equestrian guide will ensure that the participant is able to cope with the outing on horseback. If this is not the case, a basic lesson or an experience of similar duration but with reduced difficulty will be arranged.
