Horseback riding - Franciscan route in Umbria

Besides being arguably the oldest form of locomotion known to mankind, horsback riding is among the most complete all-round sports in terms of keeping the body fit and healthy. Beginners should bear in mind that you are not sitting on top of a machine and that a certain degree of confidentiality and sensitivity are needed when dealing with horses or ponies, however. In order to learn all the tricks for a smooth relationship with your ‘steed’, as well as to grasp the necessary technique for a healthy and pleasurable ride, it is important that you approach riding with the help of an instructor and come armed with a good deal of patience and humility. After a brief introduction to horseback riding and approaching with this noble animal, a relaxing horseback ride will begin along the enchantment of the Franciscan path through landscapes of uncontested beauty, spirituality, and fragments of precious history unique in the world. Back from the ride, we’ll enjoy a tasting of traditional Umbrian cuisine.
