Overview
Enjoy the freedom of free range horse riding or take a relaxing guided ride with one of the friendly guides to assist you.
Less than one hour from Sydney or Newcastle and 20 minutes from Gosford, you can ride through unspoilt Australian bush and canter across lush green valleys. Discover the shady canopy of the rainforest trail, meander along the banks of Popran Creek, the purest tributary to the Hawkesbury River, arriving at the natural rock pools where you can take a well earned break from the saddle and enjoy a refreshing swim. While you relax keep an eye out for the abundant wildlife, including wallabies, lyrebirds, cockatoos, king parrots and bellbirds. Altogether there are 50kms of unspoilt wilderness trails to explore.
Our experienced staff will match one of our 200 quality horses to your level of experience, whether you're a nervous beginner or an expert. All riders are given full instruction before leaving the yards. Children aged 7 and over will love being on their own horse on the guided trail rides.
Beautiful BBQ and picnic areas and camping packages are also available, as well as lessons and overnight rides. Discovering the magic of Glenworth Valley is relaxing, fun, adventurous, exhilarating - you choose.
