Emotional and relaxing walk with our horse friends
Tuesday 2 June 2026
Starting from the Stella del Bosco Ranch (854 m asl), in Polita di Corniglio (PR) in the Park of the Hundred Lakes, we cross the ancient village with stone houses of the town of Polita to reach the path that leads into the woods. We walk along the ancient and historic path that connected this hamlet to Bosco di Corniglio (used on foot with cows, oxen and horses).
You will be able to admire old dryers now in disuse, we will get to know the surrounding environment with anecdotes about the life that is led in the woods (cutting plants, harvesting chestnuts etc.) until we reach the stream, then among centuries-old trees return to the Ranch always inside the woods.
