HORSE RIDING EXCURSION ON MOUNT GAGGIO – Intermediate Level
Scenic route surrounded by nature on Mt. Gaggio. This two-hour trail is designed for those who have done horseback riding before but are not professionals and want to enjoy a horseback ride in the mountains. The hike is varied and includes somewhat challenging uphill sections, technical passages alternating with smoother sections. The route is scenic and gives us glimpses of the Brenta group, Paganella and Monte Bondone. A first half hour of field practice is planned to get familiar with the horse and figure out how to handle it; then we set off for the hike in the woods.
