Descrizione
Embark on a horseback ride through the St James Conservation Area in Hanmer Springs. Enjoy a personalized experience and take in the stunning views of the high country.
Embark on a half-day horseback trek through the stunning St James Conservation Area, a vast wilderness of valleys, rivers, and alpine tracks. Ride in a small group, with a maximum of 6 people, and enjoy a trek tailored to your riding ability and sense of adventure.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced rider, your guide will select the route that best suits your skills, adventure spirit, and the day’s conditions. Enjoy a calm journey through serene river valleys with gentle creek crossings and sweeping mountain views, or a more spirited climb into the high country to catch breathtaking alpine vistas from the Poplars Range.
Ride in true New Zealand high country, where terrain and weather can add a little more challenge and risk than lowland rides. Embrace the ever-changing weather of the St James high country, famous for its sunshine, crisp alpine wind, and even a light scatter of snow, all in one day.
Come well-prepared for the elements with layered clothing, a waterproof jacket, and a spirit for adventure. Your safety and comfort come first, and if the day looks too severe or unsafe, you’ll be offered a full refund or the option to reschedule.
