Children and ponies in the gnome forest in the hinterland of Lake Garda

Thanks to this open-air experience designed for young children, kids aged between one and six can get to know the world of horse riding. The ponies of the stables will be the absolute protagonists of this special 'lesson' in which the children will be involved in a dedicated and fenced area, set in the context of a private forest and equipped with games.

A magical environment, dotted with ancient oaks and inhabited by fairies and gnomes, natural terraces and wooden games. At the end of the lesson, children and parents can enjoy a moment of relaxation amidst the coolness of the trees and unspoilt nature.

During the first half hour of this experience, the children will get to know the ponies and take care of them. They will then take on the agility course before being given their first ride in the saddle, at the end of which they will receive a certificate as little jockeys. During the remaining half hour, they are free to explore the forest in total freedom and safety.

Children will be able to explore the park by following the thematic path marked by wooden signs engraved with gnome stories and legends. A playful activity, but also an educational one: the children will learn the importance of respecting nature and animals. Moreover, they will be protagonists of this experience in contact with the animal world of horses and the natural world of the forest.

What to bring: comfortable clothes appropriate to the context of a small pony riding school.

Long trousers are recommended to avoid direct contact of the skin with the animals.

Suitable for all children from one to six years old, even those who are approaching a pony for the first time.

Children between the ages of 7 and 14, for an extra fee of €10.00 to be paid on site, will be able to take part in some of the pony-approach activities, such as brushing the animal and a mini-agility course, without riding for weight reasons. They will also have access to free play in the park, under the supervision and responsibility of accompanying adults.
