Hobart Horseplay (Tea Tree)4.9 (17)

From $572

Pony parties at a working horse farm, with a led ride, mounted games and the clubhouse kept for the birthday group.

Choosing a Trail Ride

A pony party swaps the backyard for a working horse farm. At Tea Tree, in the countryside north of the city, children get a led ride and games on horseback, then the group has a clubhouse to itself for food and the cake.

What to know before booking:

Guest list: parties run for six to 20 children, so settle the numbers before you book.
Cost: packages start at $572 per group, not per child, so the cost per head falls as more children come.
Ages: the farm welcomes kids; ask what age the rides suit and whether younger siblings can join in.
Weather: the riding is outdoors, with the clubhouse as cover if a cold change blows through.
Gear: ask whether helmets are supplied and what footwear the farm wants on the children.

Tea Tree is farm country beyond the northern suburbs, so send the address and arrival time with the invitation. More ideas sit under children's parties and wildlife experiences.

Ride first while the children are fresh, then move to food and cake in the clubhouse.
Ask whether party food is included or whether you bring your own, and what the clubhouse has for serving it.
A wildlife park also sits at Tea Tree, so a small family group could add it to the same outing.

Seasons on the farm

Summer brings longer, warmer afternoons in the paddock.
Winter parties need warm layers, since the wind can be cold even when the sun is out.
Have a plan for heavy rain and ask whether the farm reschedules or moves games under cover.

Common Questions About Group Trail Rides

How many children can come to a pony party at Tea Tree?

Parties take between six and 20 children, who each ride a pony with a handler alongside, mounted games and the clubhouse to themselves.

Is the pony party priced per child?

No. Packages start at $572 per group, so the cost per child drops as numbers grow towards the limit.

What happens at a horse riding birthday party?

Children have a led ride and play games on horseback, then the group moves into the clubhouse for food, cake and presents.

What should children wear to a farm party north of the city?

Warm layers and sturdy closed shoes are sensible on any farm. Ask the farm whether helmets are supplied and if there is anything else to bring.

Can a pony ride be paired with a wildlife park visit on the same day?

The wildlife park and the horse farm are both at Tea Tree, so a family could plan both, booking each separately and allowing time between them.
