Full description

Choose a one-hour horse riding lesson in Castiglione Torinese to experience unique emotions in contact with nature, in an oasis of complete relaxation and in harmony with the animals that are guests of the facility.

An instructor will teach you to get to know these noble creatures and to create a horse-rider pair. You will learn how to move with the horse and create a harmony with it. You will get to know theArt of Riding, which goes far beyond the classic horseback ride.

The lesson is aimed at everyone: beginners, but also those who wish to improve their balance and relationship with the horse.

What we will do

The appointment is at the riding school in Castiglione Torinese, just 30 minutes' drive from Turin. Here we will be welcomed by the instructor, who will introduce us to the horses and ponies at the facility.

If we wish, we can prepare the horse with the instructor for the actual lesson, with brushes and harnesses, arriving at the stable about 20 minutes in advance.

We will enter the field together with the instructor and establish an initial communication from the ground with the animal. Thanks to this initial approach, in which the horse will be on the pace at our side, we will be able to create a deeper harmony with him.

After that, the time will come to saddle up: under the guidance of the instructor, we will get on the horse and do some exercises in the riding hall. We will learn English riding, the most elegant, and basic horse management techniques. This will be the start of a new training course with our horse friend.

The lesson lasts about an hour and takes place entirely in the riding hall.

Who it is aimed at

The activity is open to all, aged 15 years and over. No previous experience on horseback is required.

The following height and weight limits must be observed in order to participate in the lesson

  • maximum height of 1.60 metres and weight of less than 60 kg to ride the smaller mare;
  • maximum height of 1.80 metres and weight of less than 100 kg for the largest mare.

If you wish to book a lesson for two people, each person must ride a different mare, so the two participants must meet a different requirement.
