Add on some extra adventure to your TSS Earnslaw cruise and visit to Walter Peak Country Farm by jumping in the saddle for a horse riding tour of the area - the truly traditional way to explore! Whilst saddled up you'll be taken by an experienced and friendly guide across the rolling farm terraces to a lookout that will provide you with some outstanding views of both the surrounding mountains and Lake Wakatipu itself. Riders of all levels - from first-timers to veterans - will be able to take part as it is suitable for the inexperienced and lasts for approximately forty minutes.

Upon returning to the Colonel's Homestead and stable the horses, you'll take the time to enjoy a traditional morning or afternoon tea of freshly baked scones, cakes and slices, tea, coffee and fruit juice. All necessary safety equipment is provided along with, if necessary, wet weather clothing to ensure that the experience is unspoilt no matter the situation.
