Riding a high quality horse is close to being a
guarantee for fun and satisfaction during your horse trekking
through Tuscany. We don't share the view of those who think a
mediocre horse is good enough for being a trekking horse. On the
contrary, especially during cross country riding a horse expresses
his full potential. The movements should be elegant, balanced,
rhythmic and comfortable. The walk must be forceful, steady and
safe, the trot abundant and elastic, the gallop driven from the
rear, vigorous but controlled. Horse riding is fun only on the back
of a horse with an appearing personality that does not limit itself
to stoically following the previous rider; a horse that is unafraid
and willing to communicate.
The Hanoverian horses at the stud Podere Palazzone are exactly like this, due to their pedigree, due to the relationship we cultivate with them and due to the education we have given them. They offer you comfort and pleasure at walk or at gallop, in waters or in forests, wherever you guide them.

Ricardo (Ramiro) - Power Prince (Pilot) - Waldsee
Powerful gelding, docile and friendly, wonderful
trustable fellow in any circumstance. Nothing will prevent him from
carrying the rider where he guides him. He is very generous in
forgiving riders' mistakes and therefore he is suitable also to the
scarcely experienced rider.

This horse is truly different from all others:
She is trained in English and Western riding and is particularly
easy handling. She walks up the steepest hills and crosses the
deepest forests. Given her friendly character we use her
also for walking at the lounge with the youngest cow-boys.
