In the heart of the Primiero and Vanoi Valleys, horse riding becomes a journey through silent woods, flowering meadows and the majestic peaks of the Dolomites. Along enchanting trails and scenic viewpoints, riding schools and farm stays offer horseback experiences for every level, led by expert hands and reliable horses.

Agritur Dalaip dei pape
Agritur Dalaip dei Pape has long been active as an educational farm, offering activities for children and adults to discover berries, the world of honey, and its animal friends. Now, they welcome you with a fantastic new addition: an area to experience your first ride on a horse or pony, as well as horseback excursions for beginners and experienced riders lasting one or more hours, full-day or half-day trekking for adults, and short local tours for the little ones.
All activities are guided by certified environmental riding instructors who, besides teaching equestrian techniques, will act as guides to help you explore the beautiful surroundings of the farm. Immersed in the stunning landscape of the Pale di San Martino di Castrozza, a UNESCO World Heritage site, with trails through forests and mountain pastures, you can enjoy a fully immersive experience in nature.
Agritur Broch
The mares Rosmary and Virginia, along with Dorotea, are ready to share their stories. How important have horses been throughout history? What role do they play in a farm today? Learn how to handle a horse, guide it, and communicate with it—respect it, and it will respect you, allowing you to enjoy a ride on its back.
Welcoming you is the large Broch family: Daniela, the third of six children, has managed the farm and a small agricultural business for years with her family. Giulia, the eldest daughter, has inherited a love for the farm and animals and runs the agricultural business with Roberto. Valentina brings passion and creativity to the farm’s kitchen, assisting her mother, while Elisa manages guest reception and dining services.
