ITINERARY

Day 1: Arrive at 9.30am at our high country farming property that’s been in the Watson family for many generations.

After saddling up, we set off on our ‘Man from Snowy River’ experience on horseback. We ride up to spectacular 360 degree views and along the way, watch out for the wildlife that often takes a look at us, including kangaroos, wallabies and Australia’s largest bird of flight, the wedge tail eagle.

We stop at our bush hut for lunch and then in the afternoon we traverse the bridle tracks through quiet valleys and points of rich historical interest.

We arrive at River Downs a peaceful cottage on the banks of the Howqua River.

Enjoy a relaxing hot shower before a riverside BBQ dinner in one of Victoria’s prettiest valleys.

Day 2: Breakfast is supplied in the cottage and then we ride up the Howqua River Trail and carry our lunch in saddle bags. We enjoy lunch river side before climbing up to the Howqua Feeder Trail and return overlooking the river all the way back to our accommodation.

Tonight we take a drive to the historic Kevington Hotel on the banks of the Goulburn River for dinner. This is one of the longest continually licensed hotels in Victoria dating back to the Gold Rush era.

 Day 3: Breakfast is supplied in the cottage and then we then set off for “Kate Camerons Peak” where we see the perilously steep hill where the famous jump scene from the “Man from Snowy River” movie was filmed. We wind our way back down to the farm to complete our ride. We then drive to Mansfield Regional Produce Store for lunch.
