they've got trekking down to a fine art.
Beginners will learn to rise to a trot by the
end of a session, feeling they are in control.
More advanced riders have lots of
opportunity to have a canter near the
beginning of the ride, weaving through native
bush, forest and beautiful farm land dotted
with sheep and goats. There are plenty of
photo opportunities at the end so you can
remember the awesome experience.
"Each individual rider is important to us and
our guides continually help out with their
riding skills, assisting those who want to ride
faster or coaching those who prefer to stay
behind," says Heather.
As for safety, that is paramount at Horse
Riding Warkworth. The team always give
out comprehensive safety riding
instruction before beginning the ride.
Before the ride goes out a full safety
check is done on the horses' tack and
riders are provided with boots, helmets
and if necessary, wet weather gear. All
riding is supervised.
Horse trekking is a great family outing for
all ages. Parents can feel comfortable
going ahead whilst littlies are supervised.
Smaller children (3 - 5 years) ride on
ponies with handlebars fitted to their
saddle and are on a lead rein.
For arena riders it gives you the chance to
practice all the skills you are learning in
the open country.
Trekking together is also the ultimate day
out with friends and a great birthday party
treat, whether their riding ability is below
or above you own. Bookings of 10 or
more receive a 10% discount. One hour
treks cost $40 per rider, for two hours the
cost is $75.
