Horse Riding - Half Day

Experience Code: BLZ138

Description

With a stable of over 70 quiet and gentle horses, this horse riding experience offers a safe and relaxing way to see the rainforest. With horses to suit all levels and ages (min age 4 years) this is a perfect family adventure.

Upon arrival for your horse riding experience, the friendly staff will greet you with tea, coffee and traditional Australian damper. You will meet the friendly natured horses that are well treated and maintained and will be matched to a horse to suit your experience and ability. After a safety briefing you'll ride through beautiful bushland and rainforest, pausing at spectacular lookouts with panoramic views of the ocean, islands, beaches and surrounding hinterland. A few choice cantering spots will let you feel the wind in your hair. Experienced riders may have the chance to break away with a guide for a canter at intervals during the ride. Then back to the stables for light refreshments prepared by special catering staff with international experience.
