Chariot excursions
 

 

Chariot excursions offer a different way to visit the Maremma Park: with the new chariots which have 20 seats for abled people and 8 seats for disabled people, it's possible to reach various charming locations in the Park.

 

The silent step of the carthorses gives the possibility to approach the wild fauna and to watch animals without to frighten them. That's valid for maremman cows and maremman horses too.

 

The chariot is useful to visit particolar itineraries which are far, by walk, from the village of Alberese.

 

The chariot tour is also good for the birdwatchers who come during the Winter and the Fall; infact it's possible to cover the chariot with a ground cloth and to reach the winter locations of migrant birds with the bad weather too.
