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.

What To Expect

Experience the charm of a horseback ride in Colico, located at the northern tip of Lake Como. This adventure is suitable for everyone, including beginners, thanks to the comfortable Western saddle provided. Before setting off, you'll have a brief 5-minute session in the arena to get familiar with your horse.

You can choose between a 1-hour or a 2-hour tour. Both rides start from the ranch and head towards the lake, with a stop at the beach (subject to accessibility). The route then continues through the surrounding fields before returning to the ranch.
The 2-hour ride also includes a scenic trail through the woods, leading to the first paths of the Valtellina region.

During the warmer months, you can even ride into the river or lake with your horse, an unforgettable experience. In winter, snow rides are especially popular, offering the chance to enjoy the magical snowy landscapes.

All rides are guided by an experienced equestrian guide, who will lead you through the farm’s grounds and nearby areas. Along the way, you’ll admire breathtaking views of unspoiled nature, the eastern shores of Lake Como, rivers, and mountains.
