Everything you need to know before riding a horse
Horseback riding is an activity for everyone. Riding schools and equestrian centers also organize rides for beginners and those getting on the saddle for the first time. Here, equestrian guides teach how to approach horses in the right way and conduct an introductory lesson on basic riding techniques.
You can learn to ride with western riding techniques or with the more elegant English riding. Beginners start with a walk gait, while more experienced riders can trot or gallop, always following the directions of equestrian guides.
Where to go horseback riding in Brescia and province

Those who prefer the green hills and vineyards, however, can explore the Franciacorta area on the saddle.
How much does a horseback ride cost in Brescia?

It was a...
It was a nice ride in general. The staff was kind and helpful. But you only walk in a slow Tempo with the horses. Don't expect more. Overall a nice experience and beautiful view but quite and hot and slow.
