Horse riding on a quiet valley property near Bells Beach, with riding coats supplied and rides going ahead in light rain.

Choosing a Trail Ride

A trail ride on the Surf Coast gets a group out of the city and into the bush behind Torquay. At Bellbrae, guides lead groups on rides through the bush between Torquay and Anglesea, and they take hens, bucks, work teams and school groups.

Things to ask the stables:

Experience levels. Ask how riders are matched to horses and whether the trail suits complete beginners.
Weight and age limits. Stables set limits for safety, so check before booking.
Clothing. Long pants and closed shoes are standard, so ask whether helmets are supplied.
Weather. Rides run outdoors, so wind, heat or heavy rain can move a booking; ask about the policy.

Autumn and spring rides avoid the heat of midsummer and the wettest winter weeks, and a weekday booking keeps the trail quieter for a private group. Group rides start from $120 per person. A ride fits into a hens party or a Surf Coast team building day, followed by lunch in Torquay.

Summer weekends on the coast fill first, so book early for warm-weather dates.
Pair the ride with a long lunch in Torquay afterwards.
Arrange a minibus or coach so the group arrives together and can relax afterwards.

Riding with bucks or hens

Book the ride before any drinks so everyone is clear-headed in the saddle.
Bring a change of clothes for dinner later.
Ask whether photos are taken on the trail, or nominate a guest to take them.
