Horse Riding in Southern Italy, Sicily & Sardinia

Italy is the ideal place for horse riding and trekking. Beautiful countryside and great weather. Why not take advantage of this and stay at one of our selected hotels or self-catering properties who can organise horse riding and trekking? Whether you are experienced or not, we can organise guided and unguided riding for all abilities.

For experienced riders, a stay at La Fattoria in one of Italy's lesser known regions, South Campania is wonderful. Spend your days trekking through the magnificent scenery of the Cilento National Park. Take the trail known as "the road of brigands and peasants" where you can catch glimpses of the Tyrrhenian Sea through the ancient olive groves, as you make your way to Celso, one of the many characterful hilltop villages in this area of Italy. Or, ride "the ridge of the gods" from which you can see both the Gulf of Ascea and the Gulf of Casal Velino, then descend through the National Park of Cilento to Lake Petrosa.

Alternatively, spend some time at Due Palme on the edge of the Umbra Forest on the Gargano Peninsula in the north of Puglia. Or, if one of the islands takes your fancy, Sicily has some breathtaking scenery, and some amazing trekking. Stay at I Fratelli or Villa Pina, both in the heart of Sicily, they are agritourist estates, which in addition to all the services, comforts, and of course the good food and wine, you would expect, offer horse-riding and organised trekking.

Sardinia also has a history of horse riding and trekking and many of the properties we work with, which are close to the Costa Smeralda can organise trekking and days out riding. If you want to discuss your requirements please contact us for further details and prices.
