The River Valley Stables half day trail ride is enjoyed with 3-4 hours on horse back. We take on more demanding trails than our Two hour trek. We explore the foothills of a major local landmark known as Pukeokahu (Hill of the Hawk). This trail ride also gives you the opportunity to experience views of Mt Ruapehu a 9000' volcano that dominates the central North Island, and the northern Ruahine ranges. The trail ride incorporates stopping at some spectacular viewing points overlooking the Rangitikei River canyon. Refreshments are provided • Suitable to those with some riding experience, or a GREAT KEEN attitude!
