Activity Description

Ride in unspoilt Klein Karoo veld on fantastic horses while the moon rises during the early evening. We choose a date just before full moon.

WeatherThis service is weather depending. Humans are waterproof, just like horses. We will continue with your ride in wet weather conditions, although we rarely have to reschedule due to rain. The Klein Karoo is known for its very dry climate, however, we do not operate in extreme wet weather conditions and rides will be rescheduled if we decide that its impossible to attempt the ride. We can't guarantee that you will see the moon on overcast evenings!
What to WearLong pants or riding breeches and closed shoes. Avoid clothing which can be damaged by shrubs and branches (e.g. down jackets, microfibre). We provide riding hats.
Things to BringRemember to bring your sunscreen and sunglasses. In summer, we recommend long sleeved, light shirts with a collar for protection against the sun. Feel free to bring your own water bottle to take along on the ride, otherwise we provide bottled tap water or you can buy drinks at our Farm Shop. Bring a change of clothing if we expect wet weather.
Guests or SpectatorsNon riders are welcome to book the picnic and join the riders at the end of their ride.
