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.

How much does it cost to go horseback riding in Rome?

Prices for a horseback riding experience vary depending on the starting location, the length and characteristics of the trail, and the offered services. Horseback riding in Rome starts at 25 euros per person for an easy route in the Ostia pine forest. Also in Ostia, a horseback ride on the beach is priced at 99 euros, but the experience also includes a wine and produce tasting.

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.

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE

Fantastic experience, lovely place, we went on this walk with Melinda is and Bella blonde two loving and paracolic mares who only ever wanted to eat grass. When the walk was over my girlfriend and I took a walk around the ranch and see other horses. We will definitely be back

29 Mar 2026 | Horseback riding excursion in the Tolfa Mountains with aperitif

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.

03 May 2026 | 1-hour horse ride in Veio Park

Wonderful Experience for Big and Small ❤️

Andrea was a patient guide, attentive to the children and walked the whole time keeping pace with our horses to make sure my children, riding for the first time, were safe. The children were delighted and so was I with gratitude not only for the experience but also for the wonder of the landscape and nature that we love as lovers of the Dolomites and the forests. Seeing free cows and horses, crossing the river and watching everything from the saddle of the horse was beautiful. We will do it again soon. Thank you
