Horseback riding in Tuscany is one of life’s greatest joys. There’s nothing as romantic and invigorating as riding through the majestic groves, sprawling valleys and lush vineyards of Italy’s most beautiful countryside.
A spectacular equestrian center is located about 35 minutes from the Casali di Casole estate, providing the perfect opportunity for trail rides and horseback tours. Ask your concierge to arrange a horseback adventure during your vacation in Tuscany.

Many of the best and oldest golf courses in Italy are located within 60 to 90 minutes from the estate; a few even offering preferred rates exclusively for our Owners and guests.
The concierge can assist with tee times and club rentals at the course of your choice. We would also note that these are traditional, often older courses, carved from rolling terrain. And while they are not manicured resort courses, they do offer a wonderful opportunity to add 18 memories to your next visit to Tuscany.
