Holidays on Horseback: The Best Equine Retreats Around the World
The therapeutic power of horses is something that’s been felt by humans the world over for centuries, but it’s only recently that this has been harnessed as an official form of emotional therapy in itself. Leading the march for such equine experiences is Casetta, a 270-year-old Tuscan farmhouse in the Chianti region, which has partnered with contemporary equestrian therapy facility Alterreno to offer a three-day healing experience. Guided by horse whisperer Angelika Schneider, you’ll learn how to face your greatest challenges and develop a deeper understanding of how you connect with others, all through the connection you make with your newfound equine companion.
