Beach Walking Course (Beach riding 90min + Gymkhana 30 min)
This ride is ideal for first-time or less-experienced riders, young children, or nervous adults. The ride will be at a steady walking pace with staff hand holding the lead rope alongside. You will have the opportunity to operate the horse through an obstacle course and give it a try to ride without a staff towards the end of the trekking if you want. It is also the perfect ride for photo-shooting and taking many memories back home.

This is the ride where you get to enjoy both the breathtaking speed and the stunning ocean view. Once you arrive towards the end of the coastal line, you will be given the opportunity to gallop to your hearts’ content. We provide safety jackets and video-taking services for the entire run.
