Horseback ride in the countryside at Bracciano

Bracciano

Bracciano is the lake and the castle, and then a lot of empty country behind both. The farm's riding centre takes you into that country at a walk, with someone alongside whether you have ridden before or not.

How the day goes

  1. Ring the farm ahead to fix the day, then meet up above the lake.
  2. Out through fields and wood tracks with a rider going with you.
  3. Back to the farm, with Bracciano and its castle down the road.

The saddle here is for teenagers and adults; younger children do better on one of the farm days over in Sabina.
