Whether you're completely new to horse riding or have ridden before, we offer relaxed and scenic experiences to suit all confidence levels.
We do not have a strict age limit for our treks.
Participation is based on confidence rather than age — some younger riders are ready for hill tracks, while some adults prefer to stay on flat ground.
Our team will always help match riders with the experience that feels right for them.
Five Minute Arena Ride - $20
Perfect for very young riders or first-timers.
This short ride takes place in our arena and is a great introduction to being on a horse in a calm, controlled environment.
Ideal for:
• younger children
• nervous first-time riders
• those wanting a gentle experience
15 Minute Flat Trek - $35
Our 15 minute trek stays on flat ground and is ideal for:
• younger riders
• nervous riders
• families wanting a relaxed experience
This is a great step up from the arena ride while still remaining calm and confidence-building.
30 Minute Scenic Trek - $69
This trek includes gentle hills and varied terrain, giving riders a more immersive outdoor experience.
On the return ride, you’ll enjoy a beautiful view over Lake Rotorua including Mokoia Island — a real highlight of this experience.
If a rider is very young or nervous, we can adapt this trek to stay on flat ground.
This makes it a flexible option for mixed groups or those building confidence.
1 Hour Scenic Trek
Our one-hour trek takes you further up the hill to our scenic lookout.
At the top, we stop to allow riders to enjoy the view — and there is a photo opportunity for those who would like pictures taken with the lake behind them.
This trek includes both flat tracks and hills and is best suited for riders who feel comfortable riding over varied terrain.
