Bardigiano breeders and horses on display in Val d'Aveto
In Rezzoaglio, a municipality in the Val d'Aveto within the Metropolitan City of Genoa, the equipped area of Farfanosa hosts the Interregional Bardigiano Horse Show. The Bardigiano is an ancient Apennine horse breed, robust and hardy, a symbol of the pastoral and zootechnical culture of the mountains between Liguria and Emilia.
The show brings together breeders and horses from several regions, in a day dedicated to the presentation and evaluation of the horses, with the involvement of enthusiasts and families. It is an event that tells the deep bond between the community of Val d'Aveto and animal husbandry, a historical resource of these mountain territories.
The setting is the Aveto Regional Natural Park, an area of great natural value. The event, confirmed among the Authentic Ligurian Events funded by the Region, is an opportunity to discover an authentic corner of the Genoese hinterland and a zootechnical tradition of interregional importance.
