Nice experience to do it again but at the riding school there was no record of our reservation so they were not expecting us and were not prepared

How do you dress for horseback riding?

- long pants
- possibly a long-sleeved shirt/shirt.
Short pants/skirts and flip-flops/sandals are strongly discouraged.
At what age can you ride a horse?
The minimum age required by law to ride a horse is 14 years old. So, children under 14 years of age cannot ride, even with prior experience.
Some stables have ponies available, which can also be ridden by children under 14.
How much does a horseback ride in Catania cost?
Horseback riding around Catania costs an average of €35 per hour.
