Horseback riding is one of the oldest activities known to man. In Greek and Roman history those who could ride a horse acquired "added value" in society. Since then, the title of the horseman became expression of nobility, but also, by contrast, in the following centuries, noblemen were forced to learn the "art of horseback riding" in order to take part in political and military life.
In Casentino this sport is very popular thanks to the enchanted villages and woodlands, which provide itineraries in close contact with nature, in places to be discovered and loved even on horseback.

On the farm, there’s a riding school designed as a Riding School Centre, which besides the strict technical discipline, also aims to transmit the feeling of mutual respect developed between man and horse, through a methodological approach based on the concept of “observing and understanding”. The lessons, or any excursions, must be booked in advance and are carried out by Gianluca, who is an Equestrian Environmental Guide of the Region of Tuscany as well as Country Riding Technician level II of the FISE and equestrian guide of the FITETREC.
