2 DAY HORSE RIDING - 2 day luxury horse ride
Additional Information
We climb out of the valley floor on horseback, and up to the ridgeline that reveals some of the Victorian High Country’s most spectacular scenery. Hone your horse riding skills with trotting and cantering along deserted tracks before we wind our way down to the luxury river house at acclaimed Howqua Dale. Enjoy private ensuited accommodation fine local food and wine, pre-dinner nibbles on the terrace overlooking the valley and river.
The next day we follow bridle tracks, visiting historical points of interest and hearing colourful stories of local characters. We explore many broad flats and marvel at the remoteness and beauty of this country. Just be prepared to get wet at the river crossings! We visit famous downhill scenes from the ‘Man from Snowy River’, and realise how awe-inspiring the bravery and skills of the riders were in this movie. Up here the 360 degree views are spectacular – we can see the country we’ve covered on one side and the vast open plains on the other. On weekends we finish our ride at Kinloch Winery for lunch or on other days at our historic stables, enjoying famous country hospitality at our farmhouse.
