Horseback riding are one of the most loved family activities

It’s an active, engaging, and age-friendly way to experience nature. From Maremma, where local riding centers organize excursions through woods, beaches, and historic villages, to the Lido of Venice, with trails suitable even for beginners, horseback tours are a perfect way to explore the land safely and beautifully.

In Maremma: between pinewoods, beaches, and hilly trails

In the heart of authentic Tuscany, riding routes wind through oak forests, country paths, vineyards, and golden beaches. Equestrian centers offer activities for all levels — from first-time pony rides for kids to full-day adventure treks for expert riders.

Trails for families and beginners
Flat, panoramic paths perfect for calmly enjoying Maremma’s beauty, accompanied by calm horses and expert instructors.

Children’s rides
Young riders can enjoy safe short rides inside the paddock, often on sweet and patient ponies.

Advanced tours for adults and experts
Longer routes that reach Maremma’s beaches, where in certain time slots it’s even possible to gallop by the sea — a liberating experience!

Season: Riding centers are open from April to October, with extended hours in summer. Some offer sunset rides and photo tours.

At the Lido of Venice: another side of the Serenissima

Who would imagine that just steps from St. Mark’s Square, you can go on a horseback tour? The Lido of Venice, with its natural dunes, pine forests, and quiet trails, offers a relaxing ride — a break from museums and alleys.

Guided tours for all
Lido’s stables offer introductory lessons, mini-tours, and nature rides with calm horses and expert guides, perfect for beginners too.

Lagoon and forest routes
Paths along the Murazzi, San Nicolò promenade, and the Bosco degli Alberoni, where you can discover local wildlife and enjoy peace far from tourist routes.

Experiences for kids and teens
Children can safely ride ponies or small horses and enjoy an outdoor adventure without leaving the city.

Season: Lido stables are generally open from spring to early autumn, with some winter activities available on request.
