Parkgrove Horse Treks, Christchurch

These treks are suitable for both beginners and experienced riders. You can take a half-hour beach ride. Alternatively, if you are a little more ambitious, there is an excellent two and a half-hour trek over green farmland, into a woody pine forest and out onto the beach by the beautiful Pegasus Bay in Waipara. The whole trip only takes three and a half-hours, including pick-up from the centre of Christchurch. Bookings can be made through resv@adventurecanterbuy.com.
