Children’s programmes at Alterreno create meaningful change through shared time with horses. Our camps help young riders grow in confidence, awareness and care. Family Daimon™ brings parents and children into a deeper understanding of one another, guided by the sensitivity of the horse. Every experience nurtures connection within the family and with the animal.
This is an extraordinary journey of discovery that will shape who they are becoming
Alterreno children’s programmes prioritise transformation and depth over distraction. Horses reveal what lies beneath pressure and roles, helping young people and their families build self-awareness and genuine connection.
These seasonal residential adventures include accommodation and offer full immersion in equestrian life and learning. Camp Tuscany 2026 provides an autumn programme focused on developing skill, confidence and authentic connection through daily work with horses, while Intensive Camp Austria 2027 offers an international experience for young riders who want to refine already strong capabilities. Each setting brings a peer community that shares a process of growth and exploration and the emphasis remains on genuine development through the horse’s clarity rather than entertainment.
Key benefits of Children’s Programmes
Alterreno Children programmes are built on the simple fact that horses meet young people and families with the same honesty they offer adults. In that clarity, patterns and potentials become visible, giving families a practical basis for a more authentic way of relating.
Adolescents are capable of profound transformation, children are emerging adults capable of genuine self-encounter. Horses recognise this and respond to their authentic presence, creating conditions for clear reflection and a meaningful development.
Horses reveal family communication patterns, trust levels and cooperative capacity with honesty, giving families a clear view of how they relate: these activities can move relationships towards a steadier connection and a renovated capacity to make choices.
The Tuscan Fall 2026 camp offers young people a period of residential life with horses, giving them the chance to practise new skills and meet fresh challenges at a manageable pace. Living in Tuscany adds a grounding cultural element.
This residential Austrian summer camp gives children space to see themselves beyond everyday roles and peer pressures and removes them from familiar settings and routines. The shift provides a clear context for exploration and personal change.
