Full description
Wind in your hair, unspoilt nature and a landscape to admire in the saddle. Have you always dreamed of trying your hand at horseback riding?
For everything there is a first time: thanks to this1-hour experience, also suitable for beginners, you will be able to discover how to give commands to your horse and proceed at pace along quiet paths in the Ferrara countryside.
We look forward to seeing you in the saddle!
What we will do
We will meet at the riding school in San Carlo (FE), at the time chosen during the booking process.
Here we will find our horses waiting for us, already prepared and ready for the activity. We will make an initial approach to the horse from the ground, lasting about 10 minutes, to learn the main commands useful for the ride.
We will then mount the saddle to begin the walk. We will leave the riding stables on horseback and cross a flat area that leads through fields, country roads and bucolic landscapes, proceeding at a leisurely pace along the banks of the Cavo Napoleonico canal.
Immersed in the rural scenery of the scattered municipality of Terre del Reno, we will cover between 3 and 5 km, in total safety thanks to the guide's accompaniment on foot.
We will return to the stables after about 1 hour of activity.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for everyone, including beginners, from the age of 14.
Minors do not need to be accompanied during the walk, but must come to the riding stables with an adult.
The maximum permitted weight is 90 kg.
