Buller River Horse Trekking New Zealand

Red ready for action!

The horse trekking at Buller Adventure Tours has been busy the last few days probably due to the warm, sunny weather – ideal for our 2 hour horse trek along the banks of the Buller River. Had quite a number of customers from the Kiwi Experience buses, many who have done heaps of riding in the UK, so plenty of cantering and galloping along the sand were enjoyed by those adventurous riders and of course our guide Nikki! Most horse riders came back with their gumboots full of water after going for a deeper than expected dip in the river on the homeward bound journey. More great weather forecast for the week ahead, so come and explore the West Coast countryside on horseback! 2 hour horse treks depart daily, bookings essential! email:info@adventuretours.co.nz or Freephone within New Zealand 0800 697 286.
