    Things To Do: Guided Trail Horse Riding

  • Go on a 2 hrs guided trail horse riding through australian bushland.

    Trail rides are conducted through lovely undulating pastures with mountain streams and slopes of rain forest. Accredited instructors supervise the trail rides and groups are able to ride at a pace that suits their experience. Previous horse riding experience is not necessary as instruction is given prior to all rides.

    Things To Do: Head north to Sunshine Coast
  • Tip Rating:
  • Not far north of Brisbane is the Sunshine Coasts.

    Picture an area of sweeping shiny beaches bordered by beautiful blue water. Picture majestic mountain ranges and refreshing radiant rainforest. Picture scenic drives along ridges and through valleys, overlooking coastal panoramas and vast fruit plantations. Picture tranquil hillside villages famous for local arts and crafts.
