Horse Riding Australia - Mary Valley Adventure Trails

Half Day Rainforest Rides make a great holiday activity.

3 hour trail rides provide for a full morning or afternoon ride through the hinterland rainforest.

One Day Mary Valley Ride.

After arriving at the stables you will be helped to prepare for the ride. You will mount the selected horse and adjustments will be made to the saddle and tack to make it safe and comfortable. We will ride out through rainforest trails to the top of the mountain and have a spectacular view of the surrounding countryside. Rich farmland and vast areas of natural eucalypt and rainforest and plantation pine. We will spend the morning riding through this spectacular country to descend to a pre-determined spot for lunch.

Multiple Day Rides

Multiple day rides through the vast network of trails are available.

These rides can be arranged for our overseas visitors and local clients who want longer visits. You are able to ride the horses out as many days as you wish These multi-day rides will start and finish at our ride base. There is a vast network of trails that allow the rider to experience any number of rides from our ride base without traversing the same routes. Around each corner there is a new adventure.
