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.
RIDING EXPERIENCE
If You have different experience riders in the group – please make separate bookings for Beginner, Intermediate & Experienced Riders. Riders of different experience will have the same departure time but will have horses that suit their skill and group will be split into rider capabilities during the trail.
BEGINNER CLASS:
Ridden a horse only on trail rides. Do not know what a posting trot is about. This is you if, when the horse goes into a trot (second gear), you start hitting the saddle hard, have no way to control it and are hanging onto the saddle for dear life.
INTERMEDIATE CLASS:
Have been taught how to trot and canter and understand how to control a horse. Can ride without holding onto the saddle and are not pulling on your horse’s mouth.
ADVANCED CLASS:
Can jump fences, can handle a bucking rearing beast and turn it back into a trail pony.
Saddles : McClellan Saddles.
Safety: Helmets.

I had an amazing ride! The horses are well kept, look and feel very healthy and are up for a good run if you let them! The trail is beautiful and the guides are friendly. Just at the beach I felt like the guides did not control the situation, some horses just took off and when mine went with them I could not stop her in her race! So that was a challenge, luckily I could manage but the second gallop I stayed behind the guide of the beginners group to avoid an other race. I did have an intermediate to advanced level horse with a strong will ;-) Al in all I had a great ride! - Tinha
The horse ride was a wonderful experience through the Dunes along the beach. We had 3 great guides who supported us and even made nice memory photos so we didn't have to bother ourselves. The group was mixed but it worked out very well. I can really recommend this tour! Nanda - Nanda
Spent a lovely two hours horseback With my wife and two other riders. We were led by a helpful guide (Giant!) through some bush before arriving at the massive white sand beach. Despite my horse not keen on going beyond trotting pace, it was a great experience and would thoroughly recommend to riders of all abilities. Great value, easy to find and horses appear well looked after . - Brian
Thank you for the amazing experience. Landscape was stunning and my horse Blom was super chilled but also willing for a nice canter down the beach. I highly recommend this trip. - Katharina
Great experience :) So much fun to gallope down the empty beach. - Tanja
