Dullstroom Riding Centre

COUNTRY: South Africa

AREA: Mpumalanga

Come and join us in Dullstroom, Mpumalanga, South Africa at Dullstroom Riding Centre. Come and experience the scenic beauty of this beautiful town on horseback and make this memory last forever.

There is something about riding a horse that can never be understood by those who haven't tried. They will never know the peace of an early morning outing, with the steam gently rising off one's steed or the summer sweet smell of a horse's breath. Neither would they be able to recall the thrill of a brisk gallop through the mountains, with one's mount a willing companion, or even the tactile pleasure of caressing a velvet-soft nose. The enthusiastic co-operation of an animal much larger and more powerful than oneself is exhilaration personified and something that cannot be adequately described.

Dullstroom Riding Centre offers hourly rides, pony camps and weekend trails, and safety is of primary concern of our horse-loving owners.
