To all our valued customers we have made the decision to have a price increase effective 1st Dec 2024 🐴

1hr ride $65 per person
2hr ride $120 per person

We have maintained our low prices for the last 4 years without an increase, tried to keep it affordable for families and regular customers, but due to inflation, cost of staff, horse food and overall horse care (vet bills) we need to put our prices up.

We are still below market rate but that reflects Heather and Roger's passion and vision - "to make it possible for all people, all nationalities, all riding abilities and all ages to experience horse riding, and have a safe and enjoyable ride" 😊

We are not set up for (nor is it our passion to) give formal English riding lessons, we leave that to the experts 😉 but we do hope that with every time you visit us we will be able to help improve your riding ability as well as take you for a scenic trail ride and share our slice of heaven with you on horse back 🐎 Thanks - Christina Wylie

Horses know when something isn't right 🥺
Girly was there for Hiraeth, she called out when the vet was checking him over. She was there when he came off the sedative and nuzzled him and groomed him while we waited for the prognosis ❤️
Horses are social herd animals and support each other through pain or grief, they have their hierarchy, their friends and foes - but it's important that they have someone to journey with, and Girly was there for Hiraeth.xx ❤️

On Friday 25th October our beloved Kimanawa pony "Hiraeth" was laid to rest 🐴💔

Sadly we found him hobbling in the grazing paddock not putting weight on his right hind leg. After a vet examination and an x-ray, we found that Hiraeth had a fracture through the bone in his right back hock joint - in plain terms he had a broken leg. We suspect a possible kick from one of the herd but it is hard to say as it happened in the night.

Hiraeth went far too soon, at only 6years old he had so much more life to live, and so many kids to take for adventures 😢

Hiraeth we will remember you as our cheeky wee pony who loved to nibble everything and loved to play-fight with Diego especially, a cute trot and so easy to canter, with potential to be a great wee jumper. Girly will miss her best buddy and we will too. Rest in peace ❤️💔

Feels like SUMMER ☀️
Sooo good to have the sun back after a week of crazy weather, thunder and hail storms, wind and rain 🌧⛈️

Out in nature 🌲 + warmth of the sun ☀️ + riding a horse 🐴 = medicine for the soul 🥰

19/09/2024

Some snaps from the last couple of weeks of our happy ponies 🐴 Bit of a cold snap we've had so most of our guys are still wearing rugs...looking forward to warmer spring weather so they can have them off and enjoy the freedom and ditching that shaggy winter fur ☀️🌞

Our good friends at Mahurangi Riding School have some spaces available for term4 lessons.

If you love riding as much as we do, and want to take it to the next level - lessons are definitely a great investment! Becky does an amazing job at upskilling your knowledge, ability and fine tuning your skill. Definitely worth checking out.

It's not all sitting on our bums galloping around the hills 😅🐴 There is always work to do, and some of it is hard "Mahi". Today was channeling our water ways to prevent swampy paddocks with the run off from the yard. After about 10 wheelbarrows of mud, hay and w**d removed, some drain coil, mud stop and a trailer of limestone....we finished just before the thunder storm. ..in hindsight it would've been quicker getting a digger out 😅

25/08/2024

📣 CLOSED Sunday 1st September for Father's day

15/08/2024

Guess who's back back back....back again "SHALOM" is back, tell a friend 😄

After heading down to auckland with old client then a stint at Ti Point as a riding school pony - Shalom has come back to Horse Riding Warkworth. Gone for 2+ years and his brothers and dad still remembered him 😅 he was the talk of the paddock today - Hiraeth especially was interested in getting to know him. Let's see if he remembers the tracks and what he thinks of the peacocks and turkeys 🦚🦃🤗

08/08/2024

A few picks from the last week of what we've been up to 🤗 always fun on the farm with the horses 🐴

01/08/2024

What do we get up to when we don't have bookings?
There's always plenty to do! Yesterday we did some w**ding, diging ditches to drain water off the track, clearing water channels, collecting fire wood, painting feed buckets, sorting hay, feeding horses.....and my personal favorite - building new horse jumps 😍🐎

We will miss you "Hiraeth" Rest in peace kaimanawa pony 💔🐴

They do love grazing in this paddock but it is far away from the house, so they do needed someone out in front showing them where to go, thanks Bubbles 🐴 for being a great leader for them 😁

Best way to spend a teacher only day 🌞🐴 Horse Riding Warkworth

Teacher only day for our grandkids so we put them to work 😉 helping out with the horses and doing yard work is so important, getting them outside putting in the hard mahi for some fun rides 🐴 living the best life Horse Riding Warkworth

Welcome back "Shalom"! Very happy to see his old mates, his bothers "Zion" and "Shadow" and dad "Buzz". Our new boy "Hiraeth" was very excited to meet him...not sure that Shalom was so happy to see a new boy running with his herd 😅
