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.

Riding through the bush on the first morning in South Africa is absolutely the best start to a holiday in South Africa. Even more special to be with my brother as we were brought up riding horses. Seeing giraffes and antelopes up close on the back of a horse is so different to a being in a landrover and makes you feel part of the natural world. Jessica, our guide, was great and even if you aren't very experienced on a horse - these horses are very docile and well-behaved. Great organisation and communication when booking.

We had great horseback ride through the wildlife reserve. Gentle horses were picked for us and our guide was very knowledgeable. We rode through zebras and giraffes. It was definitely a worthwhile experience.
