Horse Riding Trail Ride

Experience Code: PHC734

Description

Your horse riding trail ride will take you through remote high country alongside clear rivers, over boulder strewn mountains and across open farm lands. Seated up on a horse you can look ahead for miles as your faithful mount takes it's time, before stopping for a delicious picnic lunch.

Prior to your horse ride, your guides will match you to a horse and brief you on the days plan. The day of riding will take you through the Alpine National Park, alongside and through clear rivers and following bush tracks. You will ride up and over rolling mountains and across sprawling farm lands.

A picnic lunch of tasty, thick sandwiches, home made slice or cakes and fresh fruit is taken somewhere scenic. On a hot summers day, it's possible for both you and the horse to go for a swim.

There's a variety of horses, colours, breed and temperament, to suit all standards of riders. Experienced riders who enjoy the bush and 'off road' tracks will find plenty. Those who don't like the bush can enjoy a more open ride. If you are an experienced rider and you wish to break away from the group, you will be able to do this at intervals. And if you are riding with a friend who is less experienced, it might be possible for you to take them along with you.

If a novice rider, it's possible to tailor a ride to suit you with instruction prior to and during the ride.

This experience treats you to a day of fresh country air and spectacular scenery leaving you with memories to be treasured.
