Full description
We too can't wait to get our hands on that aperitif.
You can do so by taking part in our horseback ride in Pelago: in the company of a guide, you will ride through the characteristic Tuscan landscape, dotted with olive groves and vineyards.
And to end on a sweet note (but not only), you will toast with an aperitif of local products!
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Pelago (FI). Awaiting us will be theequestrian escort who will guide us on this adventure!
Having gathered all the participants and handed over the equipment, we will proceed with the assignment of the steed. We will then mount the saddle and learn the basics of riding, and the guide will provide all the necessary information for a carefree experience. This will last approximately 15 minutes.
And here we are ready for our horseback ride! We will venture into the Tuscan countryside, riding through olive groves and vineyards; the guide will lead the group on horseback and the ride will take place at pace. If the 1½-hour option is selected, we will be able to see the Villa di Altomena; if the 2-hour option is selected, we will also reach Nipozzano Castle.
We will finally return to the meeting point where an aperitif of local products will be waiting for us: crostini, cold meats and cheeses accompanied by a glass of wine.
The horseback riding experience (introduction and walk) will last 1 hour, 1½ hours or 2 hours depending on the option selected; the duration of the aperitif must be added.
