Horse riding
Riding is big in this part of the world, unsurprising when you consider it's the home of 'The Man from Snowy River'. Guided treks through the mountains, lasting from two hours to two days or more, are a must for horse-fans.
Commercial horse treks through the Snowy Mountains date back to the 1940s. Nowdays, most start with a hearty campfire breakfast, then saddle up and explore undoubtedly some of Australia's most pictureque, inspiring and challenging countryside. At the end of the day, another campfire and wonderful bush meal awaits.
Both novices and expert riders should find something to suit them.
