Wanaka 3.5hrs Horse Riding (Pro)

Mount up and begin the big hill climb which soon gives way to spectacular views of the surrounding mountains of the Crown and Pisa ranges. The working Merino sheep farm land turns to rugged rock and tussock country as you climb higher to get that even better photo opportunity. Really feels like you are on top of the world in the middle of nowhere!

Descend to the Cardrona Hotel where you dismount & tie your horse to our hitching rail and enjoy a well earned beverage on us in the gorgeous garden bar. If you fancy a bit of a run this ride gives you the chance to cut loose! The High Country Pub Ride offers many opportunities for a nice canter- the whole package!

Please note we do not “JUST WALK” on this ride, you must be comfortable with trotting & highly likely cantering, riders must have a high level of fitness, balance & coordination as this is a fairly intense half day ride.

This ride is NOT recommended for small children or nervous beginners/ unfit/ overweight individuals, please see “Wanaka 2hrs Horse Riding”  suitable for young families or those new to horse riding & is just as scenic!
