Full description
Have you ever ridden through history?
Just a short distance from Alessandria, a horseback ride through nature, history and good food awaits you!
In 1 hour in the saddle you will cross ancient Roman roads, vineyards and lush woods; you will hear fascinating stories about the area and arrive in a place full of mystery: theAbbey of Santa Giustina.
And after the riding adventure? A well-deserved lunch to end the experience in the best way!
What we will do
The appointment is at 10 a.m. in Cassine (AL). From here, the guide will drive us to the stables, 10 minutes away, where splendid horses - Quarter Horses, Andalusians, Argentines and Appaloosas - are waiting for us, already saddled and ready to go.
After a 30-minute lesson, in which we will learn how to communicate with our horse and move in harmony with him, we will start the walk.
We will cover 4 km on dirt tracks, surrounded by greenery and the tranquillity of nature. The guide will accompany us on horseback, telling us fascinating anecdotes about the history of these places. We will then arrive at theAbbey of Santa Giustina, a Longobard jewel shrouded in mystery and linked to the legend of the Marquis of Monferrato.
At the end of the 1-hour walk, a delicious lunch (included) at the Cassine restaurant will be waiting for us at the initial meeting point. The menu includes 3 courses, water and a quart of wine and may vary depending on the season.
The total duration of the experience is approximately 2 ½ hours, including briefing, horse riding and lunch.
