We breed horses on the actual reserve and guests are welcome to go on escorted bush rides or take riding lessons. We also use horse drawn carriages quite a lot for game viewing and it is great fun to learn how to drive a carriage. We also have dune buggies combined with 60 kms of our own roads for the exclusive use of our guests. There are extensive bush walks and jogging trails, which are very picturesque. That is just the start. |
