Another aspect that indissolubly ties Durlindana to its territory and history is its commitment to the breeding and use of horses. Within our company, you can admire various horse breeds, including Maremman, Murgesi, and Frisians.
Horses are an integral part of the agricultural history of the Tuscan Maremma. These noble animals have built a deep bond with humans over the ages, contributing to fieldwork and representing a constant presence in rural activities. Durlindana has embraced this heritage, where the horse is more than a working companion; it is a guardian of tradition, the silent witness to many changes and progress. Despite the changes imposed by technology, the horse has managed to keep its role as an indispensable partner for humans; its majestic energy reminds us every day of the beauty of nature and our place in it.
For these reasons, the presence of horses is essential for our company. Away from the noise of machines, and traffic, the rhythmic sound of hooves in the fields and on the roads that cross the estate becomes a reassuring melody, a harmony that emphasizes the peace and tranquility of country life.
At Durlindana, our horses live in wide and green spaces, surrounded by the nature of the Tuscan countryside. The pastures offer our companions the opportunity to move freely, graze naturally, and enjoy an open environment that reflects the original conditions of their wild life.
The diet of our horses is carefully studied, with a choice of natural and nutritious foods from Durlindana's sustainable cultivation. Their nutrition is based on the specific needs of each horse, ensuring a proper balance of fibers, proteins, and essential nutrients.
In a world striving for balance between humans and nature, Durlindana stands as an example of how animal welfare and sustainability can harmoniously coexist, embracing nature at every step.
