Tasman Rides

Tasman Horse Rides operates out of Fordyce Road in Helensville, offering guided treks that trade maps and noise for a slower, quieter pace through the surrounding rural landscape.

Guides match each rider with a horse suited to their experience, whether they have never sat in a saddle before or simply haven't ridden in years. The emphasis is on keeping things steady and easy rather than rushing through the route.

It suits families looking for an outdoor experience that steps well outside the usual playground or beach outing, with the added appeal of a genuine connection with the horses.
