The activities
Upon
request it is possible to organize various activities to fully
enjoy your vacation.
Horse-riding
Directly from the farmhouse’s patio it is possible to go
for a marvellous horse ride through ancient mule tracks that lead
you through itineraries rich of history and poetry. For adventure-lovers
it is also possible to arrange more-than-one-day long trips in
the hearth of the Etna Park. A special program is reserved for
children, called “children in the saddle” consisting
in meetings during which children, between 5 and 14 years old,
are educated about equestrian sports. This aiming at getting children
closer to the equestrian world and in-the-open-air activities
by playing and simulating, teaching them how to always respect
the nature and the environment.
