Are you the owner of Backcountry Saddle Expeditions Ltd?
Welcome to Backcountry Saddle Expeditions Ltd, a leading horse riding service and horse riding school located in Alexandra, New Zealand. With a stunning backdrop of the Alexandra rocks and the rich history of Central Otago's gold mining, our horse riding experience is truly one-of-a-kind.
Backcountry Saddle Expeditions is proud to be one of the longest standing horse trekking operations in New Zealand. Although previously operating in the Cardrona Valley for 35 years, we have recently relocated our horses to the beautiful Hidden Valley in Earnscleugh. We have always been about that “off the beaten track” and "backcountry” feel, offering our riders a unique and adventurous horse riding experience.
Our owner, Debs, has a lifelong passion for horses and has spent most of her life around these magnificent animals. She was even invited to help develop the Quality Tourism Standard for Horse Trekking. Debs is a staunch advocate for natural horsemanship and has developed her own style over the years. However, her commitment to providing a high-quality horse riding package remains the same.
At Backcountry Saddle Expeditions, we pride ourselves on our exceptional team of experienced and knowledgeable staff. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that every rider, from beginners to advanced, has a safe and enjoyable horse riding experience. Our horses, outfitted in western saddles that can cope with the mountainous conditions in the Hidden Valley, are well-trained and perfect for riders of all levels.
Whether you are a local or a visitor to Alexandra, we invite you to join us for a memorable horse riding adventure. Ride out onto Earnscleugh Station and explore the stunning high country plateaus, taking in the breathtaking views and immersing yourself in the rich history of the area. Our horse riding experience will leave you with unforgettable memories and a deeper appreciation for New Zealand's beautiful landscapes.
