Howqua River Valley Ride

2 & 3 Day Rides

See schedule for dates, this ride is also available on request.
All rides are available on request with a minimum of 8 riders.

This ride is a Howqua River ride which incorporates Sheepyard, Whiskey, Tobacco and Wares Flat. We will be riding the low tracks and the high track.  We will see lovely huts along the way like Pickering’s Hut and Noonan’s Hut.  Not to mention Gardner’s Hut which are all still privately owned.  We will also stop by the historic Fry’s Hut on Fry’s flat.   The bridle tracks throughout this area are fantastic with great canters along the way and follow the river all the way to the foot of the High Country.  A very picturesque area that is steeped in history so we will have lots to talk about.

We will be spending two nights at Seeforth Station in bunkhouse style accomodation and don’t forget to bring your swim wear!  We will have a hot shower for those that want one along with a campfire, fine dining and lots of laughs.

Great riding and lots of river crossings!

Craig’s Hut Howqua River Ride

Minimum of 3 days

See schedule for dates
Craig’s Hut rides are also available on request with a minimum number of 8 riders.

The horses are trucked to Mt Stirling and saddled by our staff whilst our guests are transported by vehicle. We make our way, meandering through Mountain Ash (Woollybutts) along the snow trails and over the top of Mt Stirling, onto the Clear Hills track before arriving and being taken aback by the picturesque 360-degree mountain views from Craig’s Hut as seen in the Man from Snowy River movies.  We get back in the saddle and make our way thru the twisted snow gums back down on to the head waters of the Howqua River passing Bindaree Falls. We then continue down to the mighty Howqua river where we set up camp under the stars.  For those that like to fish feel free to pack the fishing rod, Paul will show you where to catch a trout or two!

There will be many river crossings and sections of the High Track with amazing views looking down onto the river, continuing down river to the famous Sheepyard and Fry’s flat camping out again on the banks of the Howqua River.

This ride offers so much…. the  views across the Great Dividing Range, majestic Mountain Ash, Snow Gums and native wildlife, through to ever changing river crossings that cut their paths from the spectacular mountains into the rolling hills and along the farming flats of the Valleys.
