ADVENTURES

The best way to experience the African bush is on horseback. Trips ranging from half day novice rides to full and multi day adventures for experienced riders that reach far into impressive Teak forests, Mopani woodland and sub-riverine bush to explore the impressive scenery above the Batoka Gorge.

This activity allows riders to see small game such as bushbuck or duiker, hippos and crocodiles along the river and in the dry season spotting of elephant and buffalo is more frequent. A variety of birdlife can be observed along the route. All rides are led by experienced guides, and rides cater for experienced or novice riders.

Novice riders are accompanied on short horse trails that last up to 3 hours. These rides occur in an area where there is a high concentration of game, and game viewing opportunities are abundant. Riders are in control of their own horses which allows guests to interact with the horse. There will be ample opportunities to trot, and in the opinion of the guide, riders may be allowed to canter.

One day trips designed for riders who own their own horses or have significant riding experience. The minimum requirement is that a client should have ridden at least 20 to 30 times, at least half of this should have been in the past two years. Riders should be able to control a horse at a canter.
