What better way to experience the Aussie bush, rainforest and spectacular views than on horseback with Blazing Saddles.

Our horse-riding trails meander through beautiful bushland and rainforest, allowing you to get in amongst nature and experience it first hand. We have lookouts that provide awesome views of our gorgeous coast line and local beaches.Secure booking button

Our trails are perfect for absolute beginner riders through to the more experienced rider. We hand pick your horse for your particular skill level, provide you with a safety and introductory riding lesson and then split groups into skill levels so as to ensure you have a safe and fun horse riding experience.

Our emphasis on safety is well known around these parts so please look through our safety accreditation from the Australian Horse Industry Council and other safety systems in place.
