Bertrand Russel
Our pillars

The horses live freely in herds in two different paddock paradises, regularly cared for and cleaned, balanced according to the principles of Feng Shui.
NATURAL FEEDING
All animals always have access to natural polyphyte hay, fresh water, and salt, and can practice self-foraging.
BITLESS & BAREFOOT
All animals are barefoot and followed by a Barefoot Horse Italia trimmer. All horses are ridden without a bit.
COMPASSIONATE APPROACH
We are attentive to the needs of the animals and what they communicate, offering an alternative way of living the relationship with the horse, based on respect, communication, and empathy.

The Structure
PADDOCK PARADISE
We have two paddock paradises, the first of 8000sqm and the second of 6000sqm, which allow us to manage two herds. The bachelor group can accommodate stallions.
NATURAL FEEDING
The hay is provided loose on the ground, to ensure a natural posture and more movement.
CONTROL OF HARMFUL INSECTS
We follow a particularly effective and natural fly control protocol, with ecological traps and the inoculation of fly predator organisms.
IDEAL PLACE FOR WALKS
We are immersed in the Val Nure, surrounded by green paths with access to the Val Nure Horse Trail and a few kilometers from the Nure and Olza streams.
