Imhoff Horse Riding
Guided beach rides, bush rides and horse-riding lessons
The award-winning Imhoff Equestrian Centre offers locals and international visitors alike, an outdoor experience of a lifetime.
In just under two hours, riders are guided on horseback from Imhoff Farm, along with the protected wetlands system of Table Mountain National Park to emerge on the spectacular Noordhoek beach.
Upon arriving at the beach, riders have the opportunity to take a controlled canter through the surf or a relaxed stroll along with the back pan towards Chapmans Peak. Sweeping views through to Hout Bay can be enjoyed en-route. Indigenous wildlife such as whales, otters and a variety of birdlife have also been known to make an appearance.
In addition to its much-loved beach rides, The Imhoff Equestrian Centre also offers pony bush rides and horse-riding lessons, ensuring a host of activities for equestrian aficionados of all ages and riding levels.
