Activity Description

As we leave the stables, we enter the Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate for a safari like no other. There is no loud sound of an engine, only the clip-clop of horse’s hooves, as we search for animals while winding our way through the African bush.

The estate is home to giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, waterbuck, sable, nyala, impala, kudu, steenbok, duiker, warthog and leopard to name a few, however, the chances of seeing all of these can never be guaranteed but it’s the anticipation of what’s around the next corner that makes the bush so exciting.

The trail follows a riverine course, which contains two dams (the second dam can only be reached on the 2-hour trails), where one can hope to see a variety of game quenching their thirst. Whether you’re a bird watcher, animal lover or just here for the ride, a horseback trail is the perfect way to experience the bush in its most natural form.

We offer a 1-hour or 2-hour trail option and cater for both beginners and advanced riders.

Customer Reviews

We had a amazing experience on horseback through the bush, giraffes and gazelles. Jess is very kind and explains the surrounding fauna and flora very well. We recommend 1000%. - Marjolaine


We had an amazing time on our horseback trail. We saw a lot of animals and could come really close to them. The horses were calm and trained so I felt save the whole trip. I recommend it ! - Lea


Totally worth it, I intend on doing it over and over again - Nkululeko


We absolutely loved our time with the horses and had the most amazing guide! This is a must do for anyone who loves nature and wants to try something different! Great way to explore the estate and see the wildlife! - Toon


Since I didn't have a car, the stable owner generously picked me up at the lodge for very little money. She, her mother and the tour guide are very friendly. The horse I rode was very well trained and well-behaved. The ride was very nice. We saw a giraffe with her baby. I am very grateful for that, because it is wild life. The horses are kept in a very species-appropriate way, which made me very happy. Horses should not be locked up in stables 24/7. These happy horses have very large day paddocks with hay and salt. - Linda
