Round 'em up, Italian style! An unforgettable herding experience on the high plateaus of the Apennine mountains of the stunning Sirente-Velino Regional Park, in the Province of L'Aquila, Abruzzo
Through grasslands banked by glacial mountains and fields of wildflowers where wild ponies roam, you'll herd 150 cattle, including white Chianini, one of the world's oldest breeds, alongside the ranch hands back home to Marco Ranieri's ranch outside the village of Ovindoli...a ride you'll never forget!
VILLAGE OF OVINDOLI
A HERDING AFTERNOON WITH THE RANCH HANDS

Ride Maremmano, Murgesi, and native Italian cross-breeds on trails and for herding. To best enjoy herding, you will need to be comfortable with 3 gaits: walk, trot, canter/gallop. Pictured here: Joker with friends Marte, Era, and Chaos.

A live drawing workshop at the ranch under the direction of equestrian and artist Danielle Jacqueline White, owner of Bright Strides Art & Equine Therapy in the US. No drawing experience needed. All you need is an intuitive appreciation of horses and a desire to connect with them.
