Burt’s Horse Trail Ride :

Where we cater to all shapes and sizes.
We are situated in the sunny Bay of Plenty and want to invite you to join us for the forest ride this Sunday 13th SEPTEMBER.
It’s a lovely ride that heads off from our farm paddocks and through predominantly our forest. It’s a good workout but gentle and in saying that we only ride at trekking pace so wonderful for young horses; any horses for sure🐴
If you’re a first timer we are situated in the Bay of Plenty.
You turn off SHW2 onto Mimiha Rd and follow the orange arrows to the end of our road where you will see the sign “Burt’s Trail Ride” .
Drive up this road.
You will then see the 2WD/4WD sign before the small hill. Please park to the right of this sign on the grass if you are a 2WD or worried about getting up the hill. Saddle up and ride over and meet us on the other side if you don’t drive over. We ride out at 10am (but please be ready at 9:45am for a debrief) and should be back 1:30ish pm.
Remember your lunch and a drink.
We can’t wait to host you all.
