Full description
Osvaldo, Mina, Domenico, Solima, Bimba and little Cocco await you for a relaxing walk through the woods and vineyards of Borgomanero, a few kilometres from Novara.
In the company of these friendly and sweet donkeys you will reach the top of the Colle di San Michele, where you can enjoy a delicious snack.
The excursion is suitable for everyone and the equestrian guides will be with you the whole time, showing you how to lead the donkeys on foot. We are waiting for you!
What we will do
The appointment is 10 minutes before the selected time at the riding school in Borgomanero (NO). Here we will be welcomed by the equestrian guides and meet Osvaldo, Mina, Domenico, Solima, Bimba and little Cocco, the sweet donkeys who will accompany us on our excursion.
The guides will show us how to behave with these friendly animals. During the walk, we will lead the donkeys on foot, all under the supervision of the guides.
Once we are ready, we will head towards the wooded area of Borgomanero. We will explore the Novara hills along beaten paths through deciduous woods, pastures and vineyards, surrounded by unspoilt nature.
About halfway along the walk, we will stop at the top of the Colle di San Michele for our picnic (included). We will enjoy a snack prepared especially for us with 0 km products from local farms.
Afterwards, we will set off back to the riding school. Between preparation, walk and picnic, the activity will last a total of about 2 hours.
