Full description
Follow the balsamic scent, it will lead you to our horseback ride!
Take part in our riding adventure in Santa Maria del Focallo: together with an equestrian guide, you will ride through the Maccone Bianco Nature Reserve where eucalyptus, mimosa, pine nuts and other characteristic (and fragrant) vegetation grow.
A1-hour experience, not far from the sea!
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Santa Maria del Focallo (RG). We will be welcomed by the equestrian guide who will accompany us to discover this corner of Sicily!
Having gathered all the participants, we will proceed to saddle up and listen to the guide provide us with the basics of horse riding for a carefree experience. The guide will lead the excursion on horseback or on foot, depending on the needs of the individual participant.
It is then that our horseback ride will begin: we will venture into the Maccone Bianco Nature Reserve, following paths characterised by different vegetation: a fragrant balsamic area populated by eucalyptus trees, which meet with the iodine of the sea; a colourful area populated by mimosas, which paint the spring landscape yellow; and an area where the renowned Sicilian pine tree grows. In addition, it will be possible to ride on sand dunes, given the proximity to the sea!
We will finally return to the meeting point. The experience will last 1 hour in total.
