UNICORN TRAILS RIDING HOLIDAYS FOR ADVANCED RIDERS

Riding in the Okavango Delta While advanced riders can enjoy all of our horse riding holidays, you will get the most out of the rides listed here if you have been riding for a number of years and are a confident rider with a good seat and comfortable at all paces. Being riding fit is also essential on a lot of these rides as the pace and hours can be demanding.

Rides listed here are not always at a fast pace (although they may be), but all contain some challenges not suitable for novice or nervous riders such as very challenging terrain, very sensitive, forward going or highly schooled horses, or wildlife that may necessitate a hasty retreat.
