Highlights

Discover the best of the South Island scenery on this half-day Walter Peak horse trek from Queenstown. Take a traditional steam-driven boat from Queenstown to Walter Peak before you hop into the saddle and follow a guide on horseback along winding trails through terraces and pastures. Along the way, admire sweeping views across shimmering Lake Wakatipu to the soaring peaks in the distance. After your horse trek enjoy a snack of freshly baked scones and cakes. This 3.5-hour tour includes safety equipment and round-trip boat travel from Queenstown.


Please be sure to arrive 20 minutes before your scheduled departure to check in.

Itinerary

  • 1 Mount Nicholas-Beach Bay Road

    Enjoy a scenic cruise across Lake Whakatipu to Walter Peak High Country Farm. Dependant on the time of year, you'll have the choice of the TSS Earnslaw Steamship or the more modern Spirit of Queenstown vessel. Relax with spectacular views of Lake Whakatipu and the surrounding Remarkables mountains. On arrival at Walter Peak, settle in for country-style tea as you’re served freshly baked scones and cakes. Once you’re fortified, hop in a saddle, take the reins and set off for a leisurely ride on horseback—no previous riding experience is necessary, and helmets and waterproof jackets are provided. Experienced guides lead your small group across rolling terraces along a peninsular trail to a scenic lookout before you dismount for the return cruise to Queenstown

A good 50 minutes on the horse. The horses are very well trained, and the instructions are very clear. Great for beginner rider. The ferry trip to the farm itself was an attraction by itself, with lots of amazing views. And there was tea afterwards.
