The horseback riding tour starts right at the Piandarca Breeding Horse farm and follows an entirely flat route, which is ideal for relaxing and enjoying the scenery at a leisurely pace. From the very first steps, you are enveloped by the silence of the Umbrian countryside, broken only by the sound of hooves and the wind sweeping across the open fields.

The route winds through country roads and nature trails, offering sweeping, sunlit views. Along the way, your gaze will sweep over the surrounding hills, from which you can clearly see Montefalco, Spello, and Assisi, which rise on the horizon like postcard images, each with its own unmistakable silhouette.

Continuing at a leisurely pace, you will reach the Piandarca area, a place steeped in spirituality and history, where, according to tradition, St. Francis preached to the birds. Here, time seems to slow down: Nature is the undisputed protagonist, conveying a sense of profound peace that is perfectly in tune with the Franciscan message.

Not far away, you will also find the largest Tau cross in Europe, a symbol dear to St. Francis and a sign of protection and harmony. Seeing it set against the rural landscape makes this point on the route even more evocative and invites contemplation.

After approximately one hour in total, the ride returns to the farm along the same flat terrain, once again offering breathtaking views of the Umbrian countryside and the surrounding villages. This experience combines nature, scenery, and spirituality, making it perfect for those who want to experience Umbria in an authentic way – slowly, on horseback.
