Farm and horse day for families in Sabina

Montopoli di Sabina

Montopoli is olive country, and this farm builds its days around the animals rather than around a timetable. Children meet the horses, go round the yard with the rest of them, and find out how a farm actually runs.

How the day goes

  1. The horses first, which is what everyone came for.
  2. Round the yard with the other animals and whoever is working that morning.
  3. Out into the Sabina afterwards, olive hills and small towns the whole way back.

It is built for children and families; adults who want ground under the saddle should look at the treks in the woods north of Rome.
