Everything you need to know before going horseback riding

The first thing to know is that anyone can ride a horse and enjoy a day in nature. It is not necessary to have previous experience or to be an experienced rider. Rome’s equestrian clubs offer experiences of all types, from entry-level trails to more challenging routes or multi-day horseback riding trips.

Those who have never ridden will rely on experienced equestrian guides to help them learn how to approach horses in the best way possible. Before setting off, the guides will hold a basic lesson on the fundamental techniques in order to later enjoy the ride in serenity. In addition, guides will assign the most docile horses to beginners to make the experience even safer.

Horseback riding Rome: the best routes

Among the various horseback riding tours that are possible in Rome, the Ostia area offers several possibilities. One can ride near the archaeological area of Ostia Antica or inside the pine forest along the coast. These routes are open to everyone, while horseback riding on the beach requires previous experience.

Several riding centers in Rome, organize horseback riding tours along the banks of the Tiber or on the Appia Antica. This way, anyone who wants to experience horseback riding can do so without going outside the city limits.

Moving just a few kilometers from Rome, one can go horseback riding to the Castelli Romani, Lake Bracciano and Martignano, and the most beautiful hill towns of Lazio.

08 Jun 2026 | One-hour horse ride in Bracciano

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

10 Jun 2026 | Horse trekking in the Mentana countryside in the province of Rome

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.

A relaxing stroll through...

A relaxing ride through the woods around the riding centre, suitable even for those who have never ridden before. The horses are well looked after and the staff are extremely friendly, even when dealing with an unexpected issue we had with our booking. Highly recommended!

30 Jun 2026 | Horseback riding in the Castelli Romani Park at sunset

An experience that...

It was an experience I’d been planning for ages, but I’d always put it off – partly because I was a bit nervous about trying something new, and partly because it’s hard to find any good ones in Rome. And finally, I found the time and the courage to give it a go: definitely one to do again 😍😍
