Description

Enjoy our 1h30m Horse Trail at the historic Vrede en Lust Wine Estate, nestled in the foothills of the Simonsberg in South Africa’s most celebrated Franschhoek wine valley. A unique way to explore the area at a gentle pace allowing you to take in the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. This trail is slightly longer and meanders under the oak trees through the vineyards of the working farm and along the river.

Duration

1h30 Trail Ride with 30min Safety Briefing

Additional Guests/Friends:

Friends and family are welcome to spend time at Lust Bistro & Bakery.

The venue is open for early breakfast, lunch, tapas and everything in between. The food at this Franschhoek Winelands restaurant is honest, abundant and delicious with an emphasis on simplicity and seasonal ingredients. It also pairs magnificently with our finest wines.

Notes:

Any riders arriving late will forfeit time out of their booking. A minimum of 2 riders is required for a ride to go out. Group size limited to 15 riders. For larger parties, please contact us so we can accommodate your needs. No under 8’s on horses. This service is weather dependent. All of our trails are led by experienced guides, ensuring a safe and memorable experience. We are conscious about the environment, we respect nature and adhere to strict operating guidelines to protect the amazing space we operate in.

We do not allow any rider over 95kg on a horse, or any rider over 110kg on a quad bike, and reserve the right to put a rider on a scale should we feel that they are over the weight limit.  If you are over the weight limit when making the booking you will not be liable for a refund.

The Horse Drawn Carriage is a great option for persons over 100kg, but we do need to be notified in advance to ensure there is space on our carriage.

All riders are required to wear a helmet. Helmets are tight fitting; please note that wigs or extensions can cause the helmets to not fit. Therefore, we request that all riders have their hair in a practical hairstyle when coming for horse or quad bike riding as no one will be allowed out without a helmet. If you have any concerns about the above restriction, we recommend booking a carriage ride and/or a glamorous photoshoot instead.

Participants will not be allowed to take part in any activity if any of the following are not adhered to:

  • I warrant that I’m free of any drugs and / or alcohol.
  • Indemnity forms must be completed with the same particulars as per ID or passport document. 
  • Valid ID, Passport, or driver’s license must be supplied on arrival.
  • No bad behavior or foul language will be tolerated.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Before Arrival – Please make sure all riders have read and signed the indemnity forms sent in the confirmation email. Nobody will be allowed on a trail without one.
