This course is for those who have no equestrian experience and wants to approach the world of these beautiful animals with safety and fun! At the center, there is a created playground for horses and riders, most experts call it a “mountain trail” but for Borgo Cignano, it is a country riding preparation tool. It’s a path with obstacles that reproduce some of the situations you can find along the treks and it will be used to teach untrained riders how to safely tackle these situations.
Veranda is a characteristic holiday apartment in the equestrian center. The apartment has been renovated, maintaining the characteristics of the local architecture such as terracotta floors, stone walls, and wooden beams, an ideal location for this experience. It's located in a small hamlet in the midst of the Chianti Classico at a few kilometers from Siena and other important sites of this beautiful wine area. At guest’s disposal, there is a loggia in common use with table and chairs for outdoor dining, a large garden with table, chairs, deck chairs, and a barbecue, and free Wi-Fi.
The program includes three hours of theoretical and practical lessons in the arena and in the "playground", and then continued with a taste of trekking of about an hour outside the equestrian center.
He was five years old when he first saw a horse and his reaction was amazement, he started his journey of lessons and competitions where high-level sporting results were the top priority. He then met someone who explained that there's much more than only competition and technique, someone who taught him to think almost like a horse. Everything has changed and step-by-step, the horse became his friend. From a great horseman, famous or not, he learned to observe, wait, and listen, if the results are slow, he remembers what Ray Hunt said, "Believe in your horse so your horse can believe in you".
The equestrian center is located in one of the most beautiful parts of Tuscany, on the hills of the Chianti Senese, surrounded by vineyards of the famous Chianti Classico and by secular olive trees. In this ancient hamlet, which seems to date back to the 12th century, the Equestrian Tourism Centre Borgo Cignano offers its guests horseback trail rides and trekking in a place that preserves its charm and characteristics of a typical rural landscape.
It is close to famous tourist destinations as Siena, Castelnuovo Berardenga, Gaiole in Chianti, Radda in Chianti and Castellina in Chianti, and to three UNESCO world heritage sites: Siena, Val d’Orcia, and San Gimignano. In the past years, the renovation of this historical place has been completed, focusing on special types of building materials, respecting the typical style of this area.
