RIDE DESCRIPTION

The ride will be at Lal Lal – riding some beautiful tracks, very different bush to what we normally ride and varying throughout the ride with some stunning views. Some single tracks, dirt tracks, dirt roads, with some steep uphill and a little not so steep downhill, 4 creek crossings. The hills are hard so only fit regulatory ridden horses should come on this ride.

*Please note at this time of year it will be slippery*

There will be walk and trot on this ride.

The majority of the ride is before lunch, we stop at the Bungal historic area for lunch (bring string to tie your horse up). There is a beautiful very short walk to do at lunch with views of the dam and to be able to see an old blast furnace with some info plaques along to tell you all about it – very much recommended! 

Please be mindful of giving fellow riders/horses space (3m) and remember to turn back and check to see how your fellow riders are progressing behind you.

**don’t forget to pack a saddle bag lunch and water**
