Ostello Centro Terapeutico La Fattoria

The hostel is located in the green countryside of Claro and offers the possibility of beautiful walks, bike rides and other activities in close contact with nature in an area rich in places of artistic, natural and cultural interest. The location is quite isolated (it can be reached by a dirt road and in winter the snow is not cleared).

The hostel is open from from April to the end of October and is suitable for people with or without disabilities, families, small groups (such as schools or associations) and people who take advantage of our offers. On the upper floor there are 3 rooms with independent bathrooms, for a total of 12 beds. Possibility to sleep only or to use a breakfast service prepared by the owners (use of the kitchen not available for guests) On request they can organise lunches or dinners for small groups.

Activities offered from March to June: hippotherapy and courses with horses can be organised by prior arrangement. Special offers for groups and families to be agreed.

Despite being close to the railway and the town of Bellinzona, the place is very quiet and pleasant. Conveniently served by public transport.


ACTIVITIES WITH HORSES

The main activities offered by ATRA (Associazione Ticinese Rieducazione Equestre - Ticino Association for Equestrian Rehabilitation) are therapeutic, i.e. Equestrian Rehabilitation (pedagogical and psychological treatment using horses) and Hippotherapy K (physiotherapeutic treatment using horses).
 

Therapeutic interventions are primarily aimed at young people and adults with disabilities, with various forms of handicap; physical, mental and psychophysical as well as users with neurological diseases. 
 

In addition to the above-mentioned interventions, ATRE offers, from March to June and from September to December, a series of courses and seminars open to all interested parties, such as:
 

  • Courses and seminars on the preparation of the horse to be included in the therapeutic and family context starting from the new studies and concepts of ethological doma.

We also organise days, weekends, afternoons for individuals, groups, families or companies who want to tackle a horse-related topic together and have a good time in the green countryside of Claro.
