Looking for a fun and memorable outdoor activity for your little one? Our weekday Pony Rides are the perfect way to introduce toddlers to the joy of horse riding in a safe and relaxed environment. Our calm, friendly ponies are specially trained to work with young children and are part of our riding school team year-round, including during school holiday camps.
A pony ride is a slow walk (not a lesson) on one of our adorable ponies being led by one of our team. A chance for your toddler to get a feel for horses in a laid-back and friendly atmosphere.
↠ If your child is a little nervous about riding, they are able to spend their 15 minutes grooming, plaiting and being around the pony instead.
↠ Parents are welcome inside the arena should they wish to walk alongside their children (parents will need covered shoes to enter the arena).
Pony Rides take place in our spacious, covered arena—so you never have to worry about the weather.
Held during school terms, rides are available Monday to Friday (excluding Wednesdays) at 11:00am and 11:15am.
