Group Horse Riding Lessons Near Olbia: Ride Among the Sardinian Countryside
trending_upDifficulty: EasyDiscover the joy of horse riding in a small, friendly group at Centro Ippico Era Sarda — set in the lush green countryside near Olbia, minutes away from Porto Rotondo, Golfo Aranci and the iconic Costa Smeralda. Whether you are a complete beginner or already have some experience in the saddle, our group lessons are structured by skill level, so you always progress at the right pace in a supportive environment. Lessons are led by FISE Level 2 certified instructors who focus on the wellbeing of both rider and horse, building a true connection between the two. During the session, you will work through the three gaits, improve your posture and balance, and develop a deeper understanding of horse behaviour and communication. The centre features both an open-air arena and a covered facility, so sessions run regardless of the weather. No previous riding experience or personal equipment is needed — just the desire to learn. Group lessons are open to adults and young riders alike, making them a perfect activity for couples, friends, and families visiting the north of Sardinia. An authentic outdoor experience that goes beyond tourism — a true encounter with nature, animals and the slow pace of Sardinian life.

I would leave 10000 starts if I could. Gian Franco - the owner, is what equestrian sport is about, love, dedication, insane kindness to his horses and guests. I recommend you to visit this place no matter if you are a professional or a newbie, the energy of this place makes you fall in love in Sardinia even more. In just 2 lessons, my husband was galloping successfully. Gian Franco - we will be back next year! Grazie mille!

A bit of a hidden spot, but it's really well-run. The owners are incredibly friendly. My daughter took a lesson, which lasted even longer than expected. She was taught by a very competent and kind instructor who looked after her very well.
