South Westland Horse Treks

Experience the beauty of New Zealand`s Franz Josef Glacier country on horseback.


This is horse riding in paradise with a stunning backdrop of Mountain Ranges, and Rainforest. Soak up the magnificent views of the Southern Alps and spectacular Franz Josef Glacier, as you trek over lush farmland, glacial moraine and riverbed.
Our trekking guides are very experienced riders and fully understand that if you are accustomed to being on horseback you will expect to enjoy your ride at a faster pace than a walk.


Our aim is to make your ride the unforgettable experience you deserve. Treks are tailored to suit both the non-rider and the more experienced horse person.


Our Appaloosa horses are quiet and well mannered making them suitable mounts for even the most nervous rider. Treks progress at a safe pace, adjusted to your level of experience and vary in length from 1 to 6 hours, all year round.
