Castaway Trails
Custom made horse treks along the
Our Castaway
Trails are an eclectic collection of different itinerates and custom made
riding options.
Here are a few
samples of what is available, we like to use the hotels available as it mean we
get a comfortable bed, hot shower, good food and pub to socialize in at night! If you are the more adventurous type and
would like to rough it and camp, we can do that too, but you would need to
bring your own tent & bedding and be prepared to help set up camp, and be
hands on with ect.
These are short
description, basically outlining the accommodation for each night along the
coast. Our days are filled with exciting
riding, breathtaking views, long hacks through stunning countryside and a sense
of freedom and open space seldom experienced in other places. There is nothing quite like catering down a
deserted beach with no one else in site and the only sound is crashing waves
and the horses hooves on the hard sand – and the occasional “yahoo” from one of
the riders J Please read our 6 night Wild Coast Horse Trail
Itinerary for more descriptions, as these shorter rides are snippets of
this longer horse riding holiday.
Beginner &
Novice Trails
¨ 1
night 2 days Trennery’s Trail
¨ 2
night 3 days Qolora Trail
This is a perfect
option for riders who don’t do a lot of riding, or one
partner is a rider and the other is a beginner!
There is a good mix of pace, stunning locations and this section of our
trails is easy to adjust the pace to suit each riding group. It’s just long enough for a great weekend
away, lots of fun and not too many sore muscles!
ACCOMMODATION at
Trennery’s Hotel includes all meals, accommodation, horse riding & luggage
transfers.
v Beginner
rider = someone who is comfortable in the saddle & can stay on a reliable
well school horse. They can post to the
trot (go up and down) and may have cantered a few times = Beginners generally
ride once or twice a year on holiday with their partner!
v Novice
rider = someone who is comfortable in the saddle & enjoys a reliable well
schooled horse. They generally ride at a
riding school once or twice a month, or like to ride friend’s horses on the
farm. They can trot comfortably and
enjoy a nice controlled canter.
Intermediate
& advanced short getaways
¨ 2
night 3 full days of horse riding Qolora Trail ( A more leisurely few day, lots of riding
and the comfort of Trennery’s Hotel)
¨ 2
night 3 full days of horse riding Nxaxo Trail (for advanced
riders only riding to Wavecrest Hotel)
¨ 3
nights 4 full days of horse riding Jacaranda Trail (1 night at Trennery’s & 2 nights at
Wavecrest, this is a perfect escape for more experienced riders.
¨ 4
night 5 full day of horse riding Kobonqaba Trail (2 nights at Trennery’s & 2 night
Wavecrest, this is a short version of our Wild Coast Horse Trails – a lot more
riding and perfect for confident equestrians)
These are 3 to 5
days of great riding, open country side, rolling hills
and long beaches ensure that you get to do some awesome riding on fit, fast,
forward going well schooled horses. A
gallop down a beach, the sea air, open spaces and lovely horses will leave you refreshed, exhilarated
and tired all in one. It is a perfect
way to clear all the stresses and strains of a working week, and we know that
you will be back again soon to get some more
v Intermediate
rider = someone who rides regularly and enjoys a forward going well schooled
horse. They may or may not be a little
nervous for the first little bit while they get to know their horse. They can control their horse independently
and is confident trotting and in controlled canters.
vAdvanced Rider = someone who is
comfortable on any horse in most situations.
They ride regularly and may or may not have their own horse. They have a
good seat and maybe considered rather “horsey” J
Longer custom made horseback trails along the Wild Coast
We are able to custom make longer treks up the
coast to your specifications. Due to the
logistics of riding along the coast, we have to take into account the time of
the year, tides and river crossings when planning your itinerary, so each horse
riding adventure is unique
and original. We also have
to factor in that on some occasions the back up vehicle has to travel huge
distances on very poor roads to meet us!
The stunning
We are able to ride to the following
destinations all year round.
¨ Trennery’s Hotel
¨ Wavecrest Hotel
¨ Mazeppa Bay Hotel
¨ Kob Inn
¨ Dwesa Nature reserve (log
cabins)
On a spring low tide and only during the
dry season (June/July/August) we are able to ride further up the coast,
