Another fantastic Sunday ride with SP and Aiden. Up the wagon trail and down to the dam in the forest. We came across cows and a herd of feral horses. We covered over 10kms and had a great time.

A lovely ride on Sunday with Vanessa, John, Michaela and John - James. We covered 9kms with some good trots and canters along the way. We went up the wagon trail and into the forest crossing some streams and riding along the forest tracks.
Thank you to Mountain Park Hotel at Bulwer for recommending Stormy Hill horse trails.

Lizel and Donovan on a ride up the wagon trail and into the forest area. This ride was on Saturday.. Unfortunately we were hit by gale force winds last week so I have a couple of my big horses slightly lame and couldn't take all the guests out as I needed to use the bigger horses. The good news is that the horses are getting better each day and they will soon be able to do trails again. We had trees down all over the place.

Melandri and Julian came riding today. We had a lovely ride up the wagon trail and into the forest area. We came across all my neighbour's cows. Melandri on Stormy had a paddle in the pond and we covered over 5kms. What a great way to spend the morning.

The pigs came on the herding walk today. Very cool herding the horses with the dogs and a whole bunch of pigs following along.
Herding walk is a fun way to walk the hill to fetch the horses. It starts at 3pm with the walk and once the horses are back down from the hill and have had their supper you can meet the horses and take photos. The herding walk is R100 per person. If you are staying in the Stormy Hill cottage the herding walk is free.

What a morning. Off we went up the wagon trail and I managed to get a path cleared through the fallen trees. You can see the before and after pics. Sandman carried the chainsaw and other stuff I needed and the dogs supervised.

I was just out cutting the grass off the wagon trail and I came across this. A massive tree fallen across the path. This was not there the last time I came up here. I suppose I'll be up here with my chainsaw tomorrow. Another big job to put on the list. 😁🌳

Seeing as it's raining again here. I thought I'd let you see a video from a dryer day. I nearly put sunnier day but I think I've forgotten what that looks like.

Siyabonga, Yollande, Tamara and Akhona came for a lovely ride to the dam and back. They brought some snacks with them and we had a stop at the dam for a break. We covered nearly 11kms. A great ride with super company.
