Welcome to Peel Forest Horse Trekking
Your opportunity to experience life before the car and enter a relaxed age, trekking through some of the most gorgeous countryside in South Canterbury.
We have horses suitable for all age groups and all levels of experience. Our treks are tailor-made for each individual; we do not need a certain number before heading out.
Peel Forest is one of the best kept secrets of South Canterbury. The small, sparsely inhabited settlement is an oasis of beauty and tranquility set amid the dense virgin bush of Peel Forest Park, on the south bank of the Rangitata River. Your Peel Forest Horse Trek is guaranteed to be a memorable experience. We are only 90mins drive south from Christchurch and 45mins from Timaru. 7kms off the Inland Scenic Route (HW72) enroute to Mt Cook and Queenstown.
