Ride of the Rings horseriding
Be transported to MiddleEarth astride your own steed!Following the beautiful drive along the shores of Lake Wakatipu, passing Ithilien and stopping enroute to admire The Misty Mountains, you eventually arrive in Paradise where your 1 hour and 30 mins ride starts. Winding through the golden woods of Lothlorien, passing Amon Hen, the track opens up and the Golden Mile begins. From here the views of the Wizards Vale and the mighty peak of Methedras are breathtaking. A gradual descent takes riders down into Nan Curunir, finally dismounting at the base of Isengard.
Probably the most scenic horse ride in the world, and a must for The Lord of the Rings fans. Suitable for beginner riders.
