Trail Riding

Explore over 200 acres of breathtaking countryside on horseback — a trail rider’s dream.

Our scenic trails wind through undulating hills, open pastures and native bushland. Along the way, you might spot local wildlife including kangaroos, wallabies, and even the occasional koala, making it a truly immersive and enriching experience for both horse and rider.

Who Can Access the Trails?

Trail riding at Saddle & Soul Equine Centre is available in the following ways:

Agistees: Access to the trails is included in agistment - it’s one of the perks of being part of our community!
Riding & Lesson Programs: Trail experiences are included in our programs as part of confidence-building, connection, and relaxation activities. These may be mounted or led, depending on the rider's experience.
Group Bookings (BYO Horse): We welcome group trail riding experiences for horse owners wanting to ride together independently in a beautiful, expansive environment. Whether you're a small riding club, a family group, or a couple (or bunch!) of friends — we’d love to host you.
Guided Rides: Want support navigating the trails or a deeper connection experience? Our team offers guided trail rides for people with their own horses.

Please note: We are NOT a commercial tourism trail riding provider. Unfortunately we do not offer rides on our horses to the general public - trail rides are available to riders with their own horses only, or as part of our lesson program.
