Full description
Come and enjoy a 1-hourhorse riding experience while admiring the picturesque Lake Como and Lake Lugano.
You will ride in the Regional Forest of Monte Generoso along a 5 km loop trail together with an equestrian guide.
If this is your first time on horseback, you certainly cannot miss this experience immersed in nature.
What we will do
We will meet at the time selected when booking in Centro Valle Intelvi, in the province of Como. Here we will meet the equestrian guide who will introduce us to his beloved horses.
After a brief theoretical lesson on the ground to learn the best techniques for handling the horse, we will be ready to mount the saddle and set off. We will be at an altitude of 1,300 metres and the walk will be very impressive from the very first moments: we will start out along a dirt road with a splendid panoramic view of Lake Como and Lake Lugano.
We will then enter the Regional Forest of Monte Generoso, proceeding at a leisurely pace along a ring-route of about 5 km. It will be a relaxing and regenerating experience, always in contact with nature, where the equestrian guide will be at our side to ensure our safety.
After riding for about 100 metres and riding for 1 hour, we will return to the starting point. The experience lasts a total of approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes.
