How it all began

The Australian Trail Horse Riders Association (ATHRA) was formed in January 1972 at Gatton in south-east Queensland, and has been growing steadily ever since with an increasing interest in recreational horse riding across the country.

Recreational trail horse riding is a non-competitive, relaxing and enjoyable activity that the whole family can enjoy together. People of all ages and professions share the delight of riding leisurely along safe trails, a rare commodity in today's busy world.
