 Riding along the Hurunui See itinerary below: A unique opportunity to meet the people who own the sheep and cattle stations along the way and experience the culture of the New Zealand high country.

(approx. 4.5 hrs riding) Day 2: The following day we ride through Mt Mason Station following the Waitohi gorge over a pass and journey through the valleys of the Virginia area then crossing the Waitohi into Mt Noble Station. We climb up onto Windy Ridge and follow the trail down to the Lake Sumner Road.

Mizar, Ben Cliberick, Phyllis Fell and Mount Catherine on the opposite side of the river. We lunch below Mt. Self beside the Hurunui, after which we ride across country again, up and over the Kanuku Saddle (approx. 850m) with its panoramic views of the Amuri Basin, down to our base where we unsaddle, unpack, wash the horses down and then enjoy afternoon tea or a cold beer.
