Our riding club is situated right in the middle of the natural reserve of Circeo.
It takes 20 min on horseback through the beautiful woods with ancient cork-oak trees and past the lake shore to reach the beach - 22 km of uncontaminated nature with sandy dunes as their natural border. For further information see e.g. Mare del Lazio, Sabaudia Online, SanFeliceCirceo.org, Parco del Circeo, Proprietà Scalfati.
Circeo had already been populated long before it became a Roman colony in 393 B.C.. Later it was occupied by the Knights Templar in 1250, to become today one of the busiest beach resorts of Lazio.
