Choosing a Trail Ride

Horse riding in the Gosford & Erina area centres on Bensville, a leafy semi-rural pocket near Kincumber away from the busier town centres. Bensville Riding School runs there on a green property, mixing lessons with pony parties and quiet trail rides.

It suits families from Erina, Saratoga or Green Point who want a birthday outdoors with animals rather than another indoor party room.

What the region's riding option covers:

Children's birthdays: a 20-minute pony ride for each young guest, matched to a suitable horse.
Gentle trails: walking-pace rides for two to six people, from $150 per group.
Beginners welcome: the trails are designed as a calm first experience on horseback.
Party space: an undercover area with tables, chairs and a barbecue for the family's own food.
Holiday options: extra rides are offered on weekdays and in the school holidays.

Since the riding school is on a working property, plan for an outdoor day and dress for the paddocks.

Head count: at least 10 riders are needed for a party booking.
Age limit: riders start at three years old.
Gear: helmets come with the booking, and riders wear long pants and closed shoes with a heel.
Timing: two and a half hours on the grounds leaves room for games and lunch either side of the ride.

Trail rides for families and small groups

Pace: walking only, with no cantering, so younger teens and adults new to horses can join.
Private options: a private trail can be arranged for a family outing or a small celebration.
Booking ahead: no walk-ins are taken, so lock in the date first.
Clothing: the same dress rules apply as for the parties.
