Our Horse Treks
Saddle up
At West Wanaka Station, it’s easy to feel as if you’re on top of the world. This is a place where it’s possible to ride for days without seeing another human soul, with only the occasional rabbit for company. Whether you’re looking to take in the scenery at a slow pace, or really let loose and feel the wind in your hair, there really is something out here for everyone.
Getting you prepared
With years of experience in the New Zealand backcountry, our seasoned guides are here to ensure that you are thoroughly prepared for your adventure. We take the time to match you with your most suitable mount, and provide a lesson before heading out to make sure you feel completely comfortable with your horse.
Happy herds
Our horses are the backbone of our business - but they are our partners, not our tools. Because we know that a happy horse is essential to an unforgettable experience, we are passionate about letting our equine friends live as natural a life as possible. Because they have space to roam our vast station, socialise in herds, and take horsey downtime, they are the happiest and safest possible companions for your journey.
“This place is amazing, today I did the lake ride and this is one of those lifetime experiences I will never forget. The views are stunning! Sam cares a lot about her horses and you can notice that the horses are happy. Ben and Nekko the horses I rode had lovely personalities. This horse trekking business cares a lot about the experience of their guests which I personally can’t appreciate enough. Definetely a place you shouldn’t skip in NZ if you like horse riding!”
