Full description
Want to keep up with your galloping desire for an outdoor adventure?
Come to the province of Florence for a 1.5-hour horseback ride through the wonders of Chianti!
Among woods, vineyards and countryside, you will rediscover contact with nature while riding your steed.
What we will do
The meeting will take place in Badia di Passignano, a hamlet of Barberino Tavarnelle (FI), 20 minutes before the time indicated in the booking.
Awaiting us will be our equestrian guide, who will have us complete the registration procedures in order for us to be able to carry out the walk. Before we start, the guide will assess our experience level, to customise the activity and make it accessible and safe for all of us.
At this point, we will be ready to set off: we will ride around the riding school, in a mostly flat loop that will take us past vineyards and breathtaking views. We will soon reach the Pesa river, which we will ride along for 1 km along a dirt road. We will then move into the forest, following a short climb through the vegetation.
During the hike, the guide will describe and tell us interesting facts about the places we will encounter on the way: how high up we will be, which animals we may encounter, which plants and wonders will surround us.
For the duration of the activity we will proceed at a walking pace, unless our level is suitable for raising the bar and moving up to a more sustained pace. If we feel able, we can even ford the river on our steed. Throughout the experience, the guide will follow us on horseback.
After crossing the last of the beautiful Chianti vineyards surrounding the riding school, we will conclude our 1½-hour tour by returning to our starting point.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for everyone from 14 years of age. Minors may participate independently by presenting a signed release form.
Other information
The activity is available every day, all year round.
Participants will be entrusted with a pony or horse depending on theirage: let the organisers know in advance so they can prepare the animal before your arrival.
The type of riding is English style.
Leashed dogs are allowed at the riding school.
Any accompanying persons may stay at the riding stables; there are toilets and a refreshment point on site.
The meeting point cannot be reached by public transport; free parking is available on site, at the end of an approximately 4 km dirt track.
