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.

Regenerating experience!

A truly rejuvenating experience in nature. The guides, Maria and Guido, put us at ease: very kind, precise and friendly! At the end of the walk they even allowed us to take a ride around the stables to pet the horses! I highly recommend it! Thanks again Guido and Maria!

The blackest walk ever

Fantastic experience! For me it was my first time on a horse, I really enjoyed it, great people, very good at their job and very helpful. The ride lasted 1 hour and was relaxing, in contact with nature at 360 degrees. The horses were beautiful animals and very good. I would recommend it to everyone

An unforgettable surprise... for all of us! 🐎✨

We did this horse riding experience as a surprise for a friend of ours... but in the end it was a wonderful surprise for everyone! 🐎✨ A really nice little ride, surrounded by nature, perfect to take your mind off things and enjoy a different moment. The horses were quiet and well looked after, and the staff were very friendly, helpful and able to put us at ease straight away, even though we were not experts. It was a fun, relaxing and at the same time exciting experience. We felt welcomed and taken care of in everything, making it all the more special. Definitely something I would do again without a second thought and recommend to anyone who wants to experience a unique moment with the people they love! 💛
