Seeking The ultimate horseback riding adventure?


For those with an adventurous spirit, Wild West Horsetreks offer one of the best horseback riding adventures in New Zealand.

We invite you to Aotea harbour or Kawhia harbour described by many visitors as the most tranquil harbours in New Zealand. A land steeped in rich Maori history: this is the final resting place of the great "Aotea and Tainui Waka"- canoe.

Situated on the West coast of the North Island, these small isolated settlements of Aotea and Kawhia, are an oasis of beauty which affords gorgeous views of Mt Karioi and Mt Pirongia, just south of Raglan harbour.

Overlooking, and tucked in from the Tasman Sea, these ruggedly serene jewels in the region of Waikato/King Country, offer an excellent variety of adventure, cultural heritage and natural beauty.
