Signature Trek
Explore the ghost city, savor meals in typical farmhouses, and immerse yourself in the beauty of our territory.
FIRST DAY: Ghost city
The treks awaiting us for these days follow a daisy pattern, all starting from Noor headquarters to explore our fantastic territory between the lake and mountains. Once you arrive at Noor Barn, you’ll meet Martina, Riccardo, and your horses. You’ll embark on a two-hour ride to the Ghost City. The path will be quite straightforward, through the woods with fantastic views of the lake and mountains. A lunch with a breathtaking panorama awaits us at a farmhouse. We’ll then continue our ride for another 4 hours through woods, historic farms, until our return to Noor, where you’ll be driven back to your accommodation. For dinner, we’ll take you in a delicious restaurant overlooking the lake.
DAY TWO: Historical place
This is the most challenging day. Departure early in the morning. We’ll have a 4-hour ride towards an ancient and picturesque rural village located at about 670 meters above sea level on the slopes of Mount San Genesio. From here, you can admire panoramic views ranging from the Larian Prealps to the lakes of Brianza, from the Adda River valley to the Orobic hills. The village was inhabited by a hippie community in the ’70s. We’ll have lunch at an excellent farmhouse and then visit an exhibition by a local painter who specializes in painting horses! From here, we’ll complete our loop, and upon our return, you’ll be driven back to your hotel where you can relax at the SPA. Tonight, you will be tired and we’ve decided to leave you free for dinner time.
DAY THREE: Lake
The third day will be spent between the lake and the countryside as we tour Lake Annone, stopping at the “Poncia,” an ancient private area that once housed an important trotting and galloping horse breeding farm. It later became the home of gauchos, who introduced the Polo discipline here. Galloping on the old training track will be a beautiful experience. We’ll continue our tour in the Brianza heath, stopping to eat at a typical farmhouse. In the evening, after leaving the horses at home, we’ll have dinner at a local restaurant for an amazing Pizza.
DAY FOUR: River
It’s the last day, and we’ve decided to dedicate it to exploring the Adda River. We’ll ride through a section of the ancient waterway leading to the center of Milan. We’ll stop in the Brivio area, explore it, and leave our horses at a restaurant where we’ll enjoy our final lunch together. We’ll then return to Noor Barn, where we’ll bid farewell, and you’ll be accompanied back to your accommodations.

What to pack for a
Four day experience
All clothing should be in neutral colors to blend in with the bush (shades of khaki, brown, beige, black, white, or green). We strongly advise opting for hiking boots equipped with Vibram grip soles instead of traditional riding boots. This choice is crucial for navigating paths that involve both ascents and descents, where improper footwear poses a considerable risk.
For unexpected heavy rainfall, we supply wax ponchos designed to shield both you and your saddle.If you tend to get cold, bring an extra layer. We also recommend an outfit for the evening and swimwear. Wearing a helmet is mandatory, and NOOR provides new caps to its clients. If you prefer to bring your own, you are welcome to do so.
