Here’s a real feast for your senses in a quintessential Australian experience. After the inspiring experience of a horse ride, you’ll enjoy fine local food and wine in Australia’s legendary high country region of Victoria. Our journey begins on a traditional farming property in the highlands of North East Victoria, and then we ride into the hills to obtain glorious 360º views of the high country and valleys.
Expert guides accompany us all the way, providing insights and history of this remarkable country. Wildlife abounds, with kangaroos, wallabies, echidnas and the huge wedge tail eagle, Australia’s largest flying bird.
On weekend rides, we finish at a local winery where you’re welcomed with a regional food platter accompanied by a cool climate wine. Just sit back, relax and take in the vistas down the valley. A vehicle later collects you from the winery. On weekdays, our journey concludes at the farmhouse where a hamper of local food and wine awaits us in the private garden.
Your Australian experience continues in the afternoon in Mansfield, with a self guided tour of the interpretative centre. Then follow the town map to the local Australian-made clothing shop for fine accessories and on to the produce store for more wine tasting and locally made foods.
The horses are selected to suit the rider’s skill and level of experience for your complete riding enjoyment.
