Cape Tribulation Horse Rides offers two
rides per day, picking up from Rainforest Hideaway at either 8 am or 1.30pm
. You will be taken to the stables where you will be given a horse to
suit your riding ability and be given instructions. Then you will ride
through rainforest and creek crossings to Myall Beach for a beach ride.
On your way back through the rainforest trails you will stop at a beautiful
freshwater swiminghole for a swim and some refreshments. For the experienced
riders there will be opportunity to trot and canter.
Before booking your horse ride please take a moment to select
