Horse riding on the costa dei gabbiani
For lovers of nature and the sea, horseback riding is one of the most beautiful and fascinating ways with which to enjoy and explore the unspoiled southern tip of Elba Island: the Costa dei Gabbiani, where nature, sea and sports meet.
It is here that the typical Mediterranean fauna and flora become the setting for beautiful and fascinating horseback rides along the coast, where the presence of the sea makes everything more unique and surprising.

Equestrian Center
The heart of Tenuta delle Ripalte is home to the A.S.D. La Bosana Costa dei Gabbiani equestrian center, the only one of its kind on the island. From there, you can access trails along the peninsula to the sea or to Mount Calaminta.

Two ponies are also available for the little ones, so they can get close to the world of horses and learn through games.
