When riding a horse, we borrow freedom.
- Helen Thomson
Whether it’s a scenic trail ride in the mountain, a sunset ride or simply taking the time to engage with a majestic creature – we invite you to experience uninhibited, beautiful freedom with our horses at the foot of the Langeberg mountains.
We cater for all ages and levels of experience and ensure that both horse and rider have a mutually enjoyable experience.
Featured Rides
Our rides are suited to riders of all levels of experience. The experience includes time for orientation, a ride at a comfortable walk and some viewing stops, depending on the ride chosen. We can accommodate up to 6 riders at a time and if there are young riders in the group we will provide a handler on foot to accompany them on a slightly shorter route. The ride will meander through Pine plantations and then up into the Fynbos areas on the mountain bordering Marloth Nature Reserve where you will enjoy fantastic views. The ride also passes the farm dam and the gurgling Keurboom River.
