Experience the perfect combination of horse riding, stunning scenery, and a relaxing picnic with food provided on this guided horse trek through Rotorua's beautiful countryside.

After meeting your guide and being matched with a suitable horse, you'll receive a safety briefing and riding instructions before setting off at a relaxed walking pace. No previous riding experience is required, and our experienced guides will help you feel comfortable and confident throughout the experience.

Follow scenic trails across farmland and hillsides, enjoying spectacular views as you make your way to a lookout overlooking Lake Rotorua and Mokoia Island. Along the route, you'll have the opportunity to connect with your horse, enjoy the peaceful surroundings, and experience Rotorua from a unique perspective.

At the lookout, take time to relax and enjoy a picnic while soaking up the panoramic views. This peaceful setting provides the perfect opportunity to take photos, unwind, and appreciate the beauty of the surrounding landscape before beginning the return trek.

We specialise in small-group experiences, allowing our guides to provide individual attention and support throughout the ride. This experience is suitable for first-time riders as well as those with previous riding experience, although confidence is often more important than experience. The route includes some hills, which provide access to the best views.

Located at Adventure Playground and close to Rotorua attractions including Skyline Rotorua, Canopy Tours Rotorua, ZORB Rotorua, and Mitai Maori Village, this horse trek can easily be combined with other activities to create a memorable day out.

Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, looking for a unique date idea, or simply wanting to experience Rotorua's stunning countryside, this horse trek and picnic experience offers unforgettable views, friendly horses, and lasting memories.
