Horse LoggingHorse Logging takes you back to the time when timber was hauled from forests using horses. A unique opportunity to enjoy a hands on experience working with a horse from the ground, you'll get to know your horse as you learn to work with a harness. Under supervision, you'll be given the reins to guide the horse round an obstacle course. You'll then repeat the course but this time while the horse is hauling a log - without knocking over the obstacles! It's a lot trickier than it looks and an experience not to be missed. |
