Experienced guides escort riders twice daily along the 13km circular route that takes about two hours to complete. The trail leads through beautiful fynbos coastal vegetation, towards the Gamtoos river with breathtaking views from the dunes and finally returning along a 6 km stretch of deserted beach where riders can have an exhilarating gallop on the sand.
The guides escort every group and assist riders in selecting horses just right for their respective capabilities. This outride is ideal for intermediate and advanced riders, though in quiet times, we also accommodate first timers and beginners. Experienced riders can choose not to go with a guide and have the freedom to explore the valley at their own pace.

Can jump fences, can handle a bucking rearing beast and turn it back into a trail pony.

The place, service, horses, care are worth recommending. I, an older, slightly heavy guy, and my 19-year-old daughter, an excellent rider, were very pleased. A route along the beach and dunes, well-prepared horses for everyone, vigilant and professional assistance throughout the trip. We recommend it without any criticism. - Dariusz
What an amazing experience! Firstly I must mention that the horses are well cared for. Something you do not always see with trail companies. The horses were all well trained and easily managed, even for inexperienced riders. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The guides made sure that everyone had an enjoyable ride. We were a group of approximately 10 people, and were divided into our levels of experience. The advanced riders had one guide go with them while two guides stayed with the beginner level riders. This ensured that the advanced riders could take a longer route and do more galloping on the beach while the beginners could feel safe with walking on a shorter route through the fynbos to the beach. You never feel rushed or pushed to ride beyond your capabilities. We loved every moment of the ride. - Annalize
The experience was exceptional. Horses were beautiful and well cared for, the guides were super friendly and helpful and approachable. The venue was out of this world. Honestly, one of my most favourite experiences! - Kendall
Our girls had the best fun ever. The guides were friendly and very competent. I also want to thank the staff and management. I made an error on my booking and without hesitation and the utmost friendlyness they unsaddled the horses booked by mistake and re-saddled horses to fit the experience of our kids. Thank you very much, we really appreciated the effort. We went twice in the 2 weeks we were here and every time the girls could not stop talking about their experience and the excellent guides. We will definately go back. - Anthea
Awesome ride, best price/performance. I love the split up in beginner, medium and advanced. - Ulf
