Description: This ride combines diverse terrain, breathtaking scenery, and the chance to disconnect from the everyday in the heart of nature. This exciting 5-6-hour adventure, with approximately 4 hours spent on horseback, is designed for experienced riders eager for a challenging and immersive ride. Starting at our rescue farm, the trail winds through expansive fields before plunging deep into the forest, where you'll cross various streams and navigate rocky paths. The terrain varies, with sections that climb steep hills and offer stunning views over the valley below. You’ll pass through a picturesque countryside village before reaching the Purple Big Bench 273 of Dego. Here, you’ll pause to enjoy a picnic of typical Italian products, such as focaccia, olives, or local cheeses, while taking in panoramic views of the Alps and the surrounding valley. After your break, the return journey follows a scenic mountain path through the forest, offering more beautiful landscapes as you make your way back to the farm.
