الوصف
There is something special about riding a horse onto a black sand beach. Join Auckland's only beach horse trek, taking you along Muriwai's black sand dunes, coastline, and private Woodhill Forest
Most people who visit Auckland never make it to Muriwai Beach. It is 40 minutes from the city, wild and unhurried, black sand running in both directions as far as you can see.
Riding Muriwai Beach on horseback is a different thing entirely. You leave the dunes behind and move along the shoreline with the Tasman to your left. Eventually your horse will slow at a fresh water hole and do what horses do — drink, and splash, and take their time. It is the kind of moment you don't quite expect and don't forget.
Muriwai Beach Horse Treks has held the Auckland City Council permit for this land since 2013. No other operator has it. The route continues into Woodhill Forest, private pine land closed to the general public, reachable only through this booking.
Expert guides ride with you throughout, one for every four riders, each with ten or more years in the saddle and Level 2 first aid certification. You are matched to your horse before the trek begins. No riding experience is required.
This is a walking-pace morning trek. It departs at 9:30am, takes 2 hours on horseback, and stays with most people for considerably longer than that.
Rated by The New Zealand Herald as one of New Zealand's Top 5 horse treks.
Note: itinerary subject to change based on weather and tides, we may spend more or less time on the black sand beach than is noted in the itinerary.
