I have used some shots from the show to share here. Once again thank you to our dear friends Michelle and Brent for considering us in their productions.

When the daylight hours are limited with a busy day at treks, the yearly horse dentist, and holiday program for the kids so you take a trek out at high tide…. (Not realising the tide was that big) but luckily the ponies are super chill and trustworthy 😍🐴 unfortunately it was too hard multi tasking to get good photos - they would have been epic - such a stunning day out there

First time on horses for these twins who absolutely loved it and want to come back. Such a beautiful day out there - and the minis had a great time too 😂

I had the pleasure of taking this lovely couple out on a trek this afternoon. It was a stunning late ride and although the horses wanted to eat lots on the way to the beach and Vienna come up a bit lame my customers were still super grateful for the experience. It’s people like this that make this trekking worth it ❤️ thank you Karen and Aniceto

Paula, an experienced rider from Germany joined me on a trek this afternoon.
I nearly cancelled it as after all this wind and rain Dobby and Dude were freaking out at everything as I got them ready. But by the time Paula arrived they had settled right down.
I am so glad because it was an absolutely stunning afternoon and as always Dude was a good boy although a little more keen than usual 😀

Stunning morning out there this morning - 🐴 Marie and Veinna were such a match 🥰 Veinna even got a special groom afterwards and wanted to follow Marie rather than me back to the paddock 😂

Thank you to today’s trekkers that braved the four seasons in one day weather. From warm sun to icy wind to rain and rainbows - we had it all!!
Our youngest rider today was only 4 years old and she was super confident with no complaints during her 1 hour ride ❤️

We are open for bookings weather permitting 👍

Being proactive instead of reactive this time and moving horses to paddocks where they can reach higher ground. Keep safe in this wet stormy weather everyone
