Weight Restrictions
For the safety of our customers and the health of our horses, we have a safety weight restriction. Too great a weight on a horse’s back can cause serious injury and thus we have a Customer maximum weight restriction of 95 kg. At the time of Booking, we ask that you discuss your weight, height and riding experience with our staff to ensure that Riders do not exceed the maximum weight allowance.
All Customers are weighed prior to the commencement of their Activity & if we have been INCORRECTLY advised & their weight exceeds the Maximum Safety Weight Restriction (95kg), No Refund will be provided
To assist us with horse allocation, all bookings are to indicate the following.

NOTE: Refunds will not be given where a customer exceeds the Maximum Safety Weight Restriction of 95kg, so please ensure that correct weights are given for all riders at the time of booking.
