Daily Routine
The mornings are spent at the farm and you will assist with the morning grooming and care of the horses. This normally takes 1 to 2 hours before you do your morning riding.
Young horses need handling, teaching to lead, stand for grooming & feet ect.
Horses need exercising and young up and coming horses need basic schooling in dressage and jumping.
A qualified riding instructor is available to assist you with riding and training.
We have a dressage arena, some jumps, a mini cross country course, a space for barrel racing, dams for swimming the horses, lots of out rides on the farm where you can spot naturally occurring wild game!
During the afternoon you will most probably go down to the beach. We run a string of horses at our paddocks in Kei Mouth, they need to be fed and groomed daily. You will do lots of beach riding and when holiday makers book a ride you will be able to ride with them.
Ride 2 to 3 times a day!
Ride the Wild Coast Horse Trail!!
Hours and hours of the freedom of riding, is a life time remembered with pleasure.
