The Museo del Cavallino della Giara (Museum of the Giara Horse) in Genoni preserves the historical and cultural testimonies of the village, linked to the collective memory and the figure of the Giara horse, symbol of the territory. Through Alessio Orrù's images and Sergio Scavio's documentary, the museum recounts life on the plateau, exploring the flora, fauna and the relationship between man and horse. Interviews with the population, transformed into illustrations by artist Pia Valentinis, enrich the exhibition.

The Giara park is famous for its 44 km² basalt plateau and the Cavallini della Giara, small wild horses that live free, lending a unique charm to the landscape. More than 600 little horses are counted as living in the park. The park extends over Genoni, Gesturi, Tuili and Setzu, offering paths through forests and meadows, perfect for excursions to discover the local flora and fauna.
