Pony Rides for Preschoolers

School terms: Monday to Fridays various times between 11am to 1pm every 15 mins on the quarter hour.

Bring your toddler for a fun riding activity, guaranteed to put smile on their face! Grab a coffee and enjoy the sunshine!

Our horses are specifically trained to work with children and do so on a daily basis within our riding school for lessons and during our school holiday camps. They are calm, well-mannered and very loveable - the perfect introduction horses!

At MC Equestrian we have a spacious, covered arena so your rides will not be impacted by weather conditions.

Cost: $75 for 15 minutes.

What to expect?

↠ Sessions run every 15 minutes: at various times between 11am -1pm.

↠ Your toddler will have 15 minutes in total with the pony.

↠ Pony rides are available for preschool children aged between 2 to 6 years.

↠ A pony ride is a slow walk (not a lesson) on one of our adorable, calm ponies being led by one of our team. A chance for your toddler to get a feel for horses in a calm, relaxed environment.

↠ If your child is a little nervous about riding, they are welcome to spend their 15 minutes grooming, plaiting and being around the pony instead.

↠ The parents are welcome inside the arena should they wish to walk alongside their children (parents will need covered shoes to enter the arena).

↠ Contact our team on 0433 247 247 or enquire via email below to book your preferred time.
