2-Hour Horseback Trail

Hoedspruit

Book now for an exclusive 1-hour or 2-hour horseback trail. Discounted rates apply for 2 or more riders. Additional pax possible with prior arrangement. Email trails@africandreamhorsesafari.co.za or WhatsApp +27 64 681 8839.

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.

The 2-hour trail is best suited for riders with more experience. For riders with little to no experience and children, please select a 1-hour horseback trail.

African Dream Horse Safari

Customer Reviews

We had a great time. Very friendly people and a nice goodlooking accomodition. Good looking horses with nice equipment. It's a fantastic experience to ride in the nature of Africa and to see the wild animals walking around of the back of a horse. Thank you so much for this private special experience. - Ellen


I had the most amazing time at African Dream Horse Safari! As someone who is quite nervous around horses, I was truly touched by the patience, care, and professionalism of the entire team. They went above and beyond to make me feel safe and comfortable every step of the way. Their gentle approach helped ease my fears and allowed me to fully enjoy the beauty of the experience. The horses are so well cared for and the surroundings are just breathtaking. I never thought I'd say this, but I'm already looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommended to anyone---especially if you're a little unsure around horses. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure! ?? - Shanine


Sadly our plane from the UK was delayed and we missed this wonderful experience. I informed the company so not to have them ready the horses. They then fully refunded us which we did not expect at all. We will be back next year and will book again. Their customer service was fantastic. Thank you. We look forward to riding with you next July. - ANDREW


Fabulous trail, excellent guide. Great Giraffe sightings. Super horses. Well organised. Very Professional. I wholeheartedly recommend! - Richard


Horses in good condition. Ride great but overall when saw wildlife felt was bit rushed as wanted to look at them and have time to actually take some photos would of been nice. - Danielle
