Riders on horseback along a beach On horseback

Horseback rides in the countryside north of Rome

Rome

Via della Macchiarella is farm country still inside Rome, and the centre here teaches children as much as it takes adults out. The rides are open to whoever arrives, with or without a past in the saddle.

How the day goes

  1. Arrive at the centre and be matched with a horse and someone to ride with.
  2. Out into the fields north of the city, away from the traffic.
  3. Back into Rome with most of the day still yours.

If you have ridden all your life and want ground to cover, the day treks out at Manziana are the ones to look at.

Where it is
