FAQs for Horse in Lombardy


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

Short pants/skirts and flip-flops/sandals are strongly discouraged.

Where are the best horseback rides in Lombardy?

The best horseback rides in Lombardy are on the shores of the Lombard lakes (particularly horseback rides at Lake Como and Lake Garda), but also in some specific areas such as Oltrepò Pavese and Franciacorta; for more high-altitude rides, however, we suggest Bormio and Valtellina, Valchiavenna and Madesimo, or the Bergamo hills.

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 Varese cost?

Horseback rides around Varese cost on average 40€ 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.
