Full description
Imagine riding through hilly terrain, dotted with vineyards.
This fantasy could soon become reality by taking part in our horseback ride: in the company of an equestrian guide, you will venture into the saddle between Carentino and Bruno, for a2-hour experience in the splendid natural setting of the Monferrato.
What we will do
I will be waiting for you 10 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Carentino (AL). I, your riding guide, will be there to welcome you to the riding stables !
On your arrival you will meet the horse, climb into the saddle and listen to the briefing during which I will provide you with all the information you need to enjoy this experience without any worries. We will undertake a medium-level course, so it is important that you already have a minimum of riding experience.
After checking the riding ability of each participant, we will be ready to venture into the Monferrato hills. We will ride along an initial stretch on the plain, crossing cultivated fields, and then challenge the difference in altitude by entering a scenic wood, enjoying the view of the valleys that frame Carentino. We will then reach the vineyards of Bruno, the first village in the Asti area that we will encounter.
After approximately 13 km, we will return to the meeting point. The horse ride will last 1 hour and 45 minutes; the experience will last 2 hours in total.
