Where we Ride

The scenic beauty of the area in which the trails are done, makes for some of the most beautiful horse riding trails in the country.  Large mobile dunes along the north side of Visbaai, offer an excellent terrain for horses to trot and canter over, while enjoying excellent  views of the unspoilt bay.  Before one gets onto the dunes, the ride takes one through patches of pristine coastal thicket vegetation and remnant patches of the rare Renosterveld vegetation type.

Only groups with a maximum of four people are taken out at a time, this allows for intimacy within the group making sure that all the clients in the group obtain the guided information that will be carried over by Cornelia.  Small groups also allow for a more exclusive feel, allowing each client to have the chance to ask questions and make enquiries.

Only small intimate groups will be taken out on rides, to give the client the feel of exclusivity.  The riding itself is through an area of spectacular scenery.  The rides will be guided, with ecological and interesting facts being brought across to the client as they ride through three vegetation types, namely Renosterveld, Coastal Thicket and mobile sand dunes.  Wild animals are also a likely encounter along the ride.  Whales and Dolphins can be seen in Visbaai from the dunes in their respective seasons.  Grysbok, Common Duiker, Bushbuck, 3 species of Tortoise, Scrub Hare, Bush-pig, Bat Eared Foxes, Badger, Porcupine and Caracal are abundant in the area, and sightings are possible.

The horses are trained, with a host of different horses to ensure each client will be able ride a horse suited to their weight and ability.
