Glentanner Horse Trekking Rears Up for the Summer


Yesterday, Tuesday 22nd November, Glentanner Horse trekking began for the summer season. The first trek was a tremendous 3 hour trek up to the top of Glentanner Station. The rider, who was holidaying in New Zealand for 3 weeks with her husband, was amazed at the phenomenal scenery and landscapes.

Glentanner Horse Trekking operates November to April each year, with the option of a 1/2 hr, 1, 2 or 3 hour treks. You will wind up the glorious Glentanner Station hills where you will have magical views of Lake Pukaki, Aoraki Mt Cook and the surrounding Southern Alps.

This year we have an extra lovely horse trek guide, Jenny. Jenny is from Northern Germany and has been in NZ for 3 months. She is passionate about horses, and has been riding for 15 years (3/4 of her life!). Jenny's other interests are music, books and meeting new people. Welcome Jenny.
