Dream Island will take you to discover our fantastic Sicilian landscapes; you will explore the Etna Nord territory with the possibility of reaching the Alcantara Gorges as well!

Horseback tours vary in duration, itinerary and difficulty; we have tours for all enthusiasts, from beginners to experts. The horses are docile, reliable and accustomed to every route and terrain.

These rides are conducted in total safety and with the utmost respect for the environment.
The guides who will accompany you are passionate horsemen with a strong knowledge of the territory and all the necessary qualifications.

The tours start near the town of Linguaglossa, in the summertime they start from Rifugio Ragabo.

Notes:

• By summertime we roughly refer to the end of July-August, if in doubt ask and we will soon let you know about availability.
  It is also possible to do Etna tours beyond summertime, in this case the horses would be moved for the occasion so you will need to pay an extra to be determined as appropriate.
• Our tours often go even a little beyond the duration you have paid for, you will have a chance to rest, refresh and take lots of nice memorable photos!
