Experienced guides escort riders twice daily along the 13km circular route. The trail takes about two hours to complete, leading 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. Here on this isolated beach, riders can canter their mounts in the shallows or have an exhilarating gallop on the sand.
The trail provides magnificent views of the area and affords ample opportunity to spot a variety of bird species, tortoises, bushbuck, plant and marine life. Imagine whale watching from horseback!
You may see seals basking in the sun and the rare African Black Oystercatcher is always to be found near the Gamtoos river mouth.
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.

Super schoner Ausritt mit einem super schonen Galopp-Finale am Strand - Angela
Wonderful experience riding through the beautiful landscape and along the beach with well trained horses who were in a very good condition and lovely guides. Everyone did their best to make every participant of every riding level comfortable and made it therefore an unique experience I'll always keep in my heart! Thank you Jan and Cassandra for taking us with you! - Johanna
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
