Sicily and Horseback Riding: what to know

Sicily offers a wide diversity of vegetation for horseback riding excursions within a few miles of major cities. Mount Etna Park offers breathtaking scenery for horseback riding trips in the volcanic hills. Otherwise, the sea shores of Catania and San Vito lo Capo for beach excursions. Finally, we find horseback riding trips both in Pantelleria and in the Sicilian hinterland.

Horseback riding tours vary in duration: they range from about 1h up to half a day. The price of a horseback ride in Sicily varies, but it is around €30 per hour. Some stables also offer the possibility of enjoying a typical meal at an agritourism, such as this trek in Syracuse.

These are very enjoyable rides suitable even for beginners, so no previous equestrian experience is necessary.

Discover the best horseback riding tours in Sicily within minutes of Catania, Syracuse, Agrigento, San Vito lo Capo and in Etna Park!

FAQs for Horse in Sicily


Is horseback riding difficult?

Horseback riding tours are also suitable for beginners. For people who have never ridden a horse before, short tours are recommended.

How do you dress for horseback riding?

Horseback riding includes stretches in the middle of the woods and in the countryside. For this reason, the required clothing for horseback riding includes:
- comfortable shoes
- 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 cost in Sicily?

Horseback riding in Sicily costs an average of €30 per hour. The price depends on the riding stables, the location and the type of ride: the horse requires uncommon care compared to other animals, so a large part of the price paid is equivalent to the preparation, feeding and care of the animal.
