AUSTRALIAN HORSEBACK RIDING ADVENTURES

THE VICTORIAN HIGHLANDS:
BOGONG HORSEBACK ADVENTURES

Deep in Victoria’s beautiful highlands lies the 646,000-hectare Alpine National Park--the largest in Victoria. Linking with National Parks in NSW and the ACT, this protected area covers almost Australia’s entire Alpine environment. From the dry river valley of the Snowy River to the alpine summit of Victoria's highest peak, The Alpine National Park contains a wide range of natural environments.Twelve plant species including the Bogong Daisy-bush and Silky Daisy are found nowhere else in the world.

PACKHORSE TOURS
Choose from a 3-5 day adventure in the Australian Alpine summer where riders have the opportunity to explore and wander through the valleys and foothills as the age-old Aboriginal people once did in the aim to feast on the Bogong moth. Traverse Victoria's highest mountain, follow tracks cut into the earth over 100 years ago, visit Pretty Valley, Tawonga Huts, and bushranger Bogong Jack's hideout. Camp under the stars while savoring the company, food, and wine before a day of cantering across the top of Mt. Fainter with 6000 ft-high views.

 
DAILY TRAIL RIDES
Ride into Alpine National Park to explore the tall mountain forests, ferngullies, and river crossings. With horses suitable for any rider, you can come as a group or solo for hours of exploration.
 
CAMPS
