    Overview

    Enjoy an unforgettable horseback riding experience in Colico, at the northern tip of Lake Como, ideal even for beginners thanks to the comfortable Western saddle and a short practice session before the ride.

    Choose between a 1-hour or 2-hour tour, both featuring a scenic ride to the lake with a stop at the beach (when accessible) and peaceful trails through the surrounding fields.

    The 2-hour tour offers something extra: a beautiful trail through the woods, reaching the first paths of the Valtellina region.

    In summer, you can even ride your horse into the river or lake, creating a truly unique memory. In winter, snow rides are a magical way to explore the snowy landscape.

    Throughout the ride, an experienced guide will lead you along breathtaking routes with views of unspoiled nature, rivers, mountains, and the eastern shores of Lake Como.

    In case of disability, the provider will assess on site if participation is safe; otherwise, the experience will not take place.

Before setting off, you'll have a brief 5-minute session in the arena to get familiar with your horse.
