Treat your children to a horse riding experience they will never forget
Children who learn about and care for horses grow into happier adults; adults that are considerate and respectful of the planet and its animals. It is for this reason, if for no other, that it is worth choosing a horse riding holiday for your kids here at the Riding Tuscany Ranch riding centre of Belmonte Vacanze Farm Holidays.
Ours is the only farm holiday agriturismo in Montaione that can also boast a horse riding centre for children: Benedetta and Peter, our talented and professional instructors organise horse-riding activities and fun for the little ones all year round.
First 'leg up'
The first “leg up”, which is the first time up in the saddle, is a magical moment for any rider. An experience your children will never forget. They can choose to experience their first leg up either on a horse or a pony. A qualified instructor helps them to gain confidence with the horse or pony followed by a ride, the total experience will last around 1 hour.
This particular experience is reserved for children aged 3 or above.
The first leg up is a great and memorable moment for everyone!
