First experience on horseback excellent
We went to this place for a different initiative with my wife and it was really nice as the first experience on horseback x my wife ... Claudia and his partner were very nice and kind and very funny ... we were introduced to the horses that we will use and let us do some maneuvering in the enclosed fenced before going out to the open countryside was all very good I would absolutely return....I remind those who book to show up in long trousers no in shorts if not you risk that skips the walk because, however, both by law and because in the path there will be tall grass ... as a first experience I recommend so much also to start with the little ones to learn about life with horses thanks for everything to the next

Wonderful experience, but with one small flaw.
I went for an hour-long horseback ride in the countryside around Mentana. The route is on a dirt road with ascents and descents; I admit that the descent made me a little anxious, but the wonderful view paid off! The horses are beautiful and the experience itself was wonderful. The only sore point was that when I asked if I could pet the horse I was told no, which I regretted. All in all, however, a wonderful experience that I would recommend.

Much more than a walk: culture, nature and authentic flavours.
We spent a different Sunday in the company of Marco and his horses. After an initial briefing and approach with the horse that would accompany us on our ride, we took a long walk. We saw animals in total freedom without any human presence and it was fascinating, sampling plants that we found along the way. The view was wonderful, a plain with a lot of biodiversity, very beautiful and relaxing. On the way, Marco explained the history of the place to us, he explained a lot of curiosities about horses and other animals, he got us into the heart of the place thanks to his vast knowledge and culture. It was very interesting to listen to him. At the end, he treated us to a homemade aperitif made with care and local products.
