Everything you need to know before a horseback ride

The first thing to know is that anyone can ride a horse. There are no minimum requirements, other than being in good health and being at least 14 years old. Before setting off on the ride, the equestrian guides give an introductory lesson on basic riding techniques and the main commands to be given to the horses. Novices and beginners are assigned the most docile specimens to ensure a pleasant and safe experience.

Horseback riding can be done on simple, mostly flat trails or on more technical routes that require mastery in all gaits (stride, trot and gallop). Comfortable clothing and durable long pants should be worn. This type of activity has no seasonality: if the weather is good, you can ride all year round, even in snow.

Horseback riding Lombardy: the best places for a riding tour

The countryside, lakes and mountains are the backdrops for horseback riding tours in Lombardy. Lake Como and Lake Garda are ideal for a relaxing ride with panoramic views. The countryside of Pavia, Mantua, and Lodi are perfect for ending the ride with a typical farmhouse lunch. Those who prefer mountain locations, however, can ride on the trails along the Adda River in Valtellina.

Lombardy offers a diverse range of equestrian activities. Equestrian centers and farmhouses with riding stables can be found in Bergamo, Varese, Como, Brescia and all other provinces. Even those who want to go horseback riding in Milan can find solutions just beyond the city limits.

How much does a horseback ride cost in Lombardy?

Prices for horseback rides depend on the location, duration, difficulty of the route, and any services included in the activity. On average, the basic experience involving a 1-hour horseback ride costs 25 to 35 euros per person.

Gift a horseback riding tour: an adventure in contact with nature and animals

A horseback ride can be an original and fun gift idea: whether it’s a birthday, graduation or any other occasion. Spending a few hours surrounded by greenery while riding a magnificent horse is a great way to reconnect with nature and regenerate from the stresses of daily life. The rides are always led by professional equestrian guides so that everyone can enjoy themselves safely. There’s truly no better gift.

16 Feb 2026 | One-hour horse riding along the Serio River

Sveet & Clementine

Although it doesn't last very long it was an authentic and very relaxing experience. They have beautiful horses and if you've never ridden one, they really give you the feeling of having a say because you have to wade in the right spot or not give too much uphill/descent 😅

Horseback Riding and Lunch 🐎

We did the horse riding tour with lunch and it was a truly unique experience! The ride in the woods near the riding school was beautiful, all surrounded by nature with a crazy view of the Alps and Monte Rosa... a panorama that leaves you speechless 😍 Tiziana and all the staff are super friendly and helpful, they make you feel at home straight away. The horses are great and the course is really nice, perfect for enjoying the moment in total relaxation. And then lunch... really delicious! The perfect conclusion after such a special morning. Beautiful place, beautiful atmosphere and super pleasant experience. We can't wait to come back! 🐎✨
