Frequently asked questions

Do you cater for Beginner, Intermediate & Advanced Riders?

Yes we do. We can cater from a complete beginner to an Advanced Rider. We have horses for all levels and abilities of riding. We match our horses to your riding level using a range of criteria including, height, weight and experience. You can enter these details in our online enquiry form, or if you make a phone booking we will ask you then for your riding ability.



What should I wear? Should I bring anything?

Comfort is key with horse riding, so wear long long pants (long jeans or tights) and closed in shoes or sneakers. Suncream and mozzie reppellant never goes astray either! Bring your camera or your phone, we have lots of photo opportunities and we can add a little saddle bag for your belongings. Most importantly, we provide helmets to keep you safe. You may bring your own helmet to ride in as long as it meets the required safety standards. We also provide wet weather gear if required.



Do you ride in all weather?

We sure do! Some of the most beautiful rides have been done in a light drizzle. If winds are gail force, storms imminient or bushfires close-by we will talk with you to arrange another time that suits you. If conditions become unsafe we postpone our rides to a suitable day and time. We have wet-weather gear for you to wear to get that real authentic cowboy feel. If the weather is hot we arrange earlier and later rides to cater for the hotter weather.
