Very definitely my most favourite activity so far during my 4 week New Zealand travels. I am an occasional rider and try to fit in a ride or two wherever I take a trip in the world. But this was a huge cut above other places I have been and experiences had! The stunning location, the variety within the ride, the horses and our guide, Milo all farrrrr exceeded my expectations! Milo and his partner took over the business a year ago, and own the riding concession for the whole of this area of outstanding beauty. MIlo is a horseman with a passion for people, places and life, and it shows through his engaging personality, and his obvious love of, and care for, his horses. I rode his wife’s horse ‘Spring ‘, a beautiful and intelligent mare. They also offer trips way beyond this 1 1/2 hour spectacular adventure ride. I’d jump at doing one of those too! I managed to make it up to their mountain base with not problems in my little 2WD car. 🚙 Best Day Ever!

Amazing experience. If you enjoy riding this is a must do. Beautiful scenery, fantastic horses and great guide in Milo. Highly recommended

I had an absolutely fabulous time. Could not have asked for more. Thank you so much!

Gorgeous scenery (even on the 1.5 hour ride), friendly guides, beautiful and well cared-for horses... One of the best horse rides I've been on, and an absolute must-do activity for anyone in the Hanmer area!

We had a fabulous time with Milo leading us on this morning ride. Its been on my bucket list to ride in the south island mountains for some time. It was a lovely sunny day and we could see for miles. The land is so vast- its breath taking! We had lovely calm horses to ride on and comfy saddles. Milo was a great guy to travel with. He told us amusing stories. I will go back another time. I fully reccomend this trip to anyone who likes riding and exploring the great outdoors.
