Curiosity on the Bardigiano horse

Its name, Bardigiano, derives from bardi (Pr) the village of the Parma Apennines from which it originates.

Descendant of the ancient horses of the Celtic populations, historically it has been selected on the basis of strength, rusticity and resistance, but above all for its character, in order to obtain subjects more and more suitable to work with man.

Today’s selection objectives provide a suitable conformation for the service of saddle, light shooting and riding for leisure.

Hippotherapy: its marked docility and ease in learning, sensitivity and willingness to collaborate with man make it a particularly suitable horse for use in assisted therapies for people with disabilities.

Equestrian tourism: the Bardigiano is a pleasure horse, quiet and obedient, with a safe foot on any terrain, ideal for more demanding walks and trekking.
