1 Hour Horse Trail

ARRIVAL: Please arrive 30 minutes before booking starts for the briefing. RIDING: We accommodate beginners but have well schooled horses that advanced riders will enjoy. Different levels in one group are welcome, riders of similar experience are grouped together, and each group will do parts of the trail with their own guide.   A variety of tractor routes, mountain climbs and open areas for a good canter.  The mountain areas offer breathtaking views so it is recommended to take the 2 hour ride to get to the top of Paarl Mountain for the best possible view.   We mainly make use of McCelan type trail saddles but English General Purpose saddles are available on request.  Hard hats are compulsory; you are welcome to bring your own although we do keep a supply in all sizes for those who prefer to travel light.   HORSES: Our horses are a variety of cross breeds that suit all terrain as well as the different levels of riders that they come in contact with.  They are schooled, well tempered animals that are very much part of the family here.  WEIGHT LIMIT: No persons over 90kg (14 stone / 198 pounds). Horses are categorised as follows: <65 kg ; 65 – 75kg ; 75 – 90 kg
