We will also cover horse nutrition, basic health care, show preparation and floating. Very educational and loads of fun!The Horses & TackAll of the horses are fit, exceptionally well looked after and in very good condition. They vary in breed and type and all are experienced in negotiating the mountain trails. We will match you with a horse to suit your level of experience and your size. We use mainly Australian stock saddles, all of which are individually fitted to the horses, comfortable to ride in and well maintained. |
