We love horses and sharing our passion with you

We love horses and the outdoors, and we want to share that passion with you. Nothing compares to the feeling of leaving the crowds behind, climbing into the saddle, breathing in the fresh air and riding across beautiful New Zealand farmland.

We have horse rides for everyone – beginners and advanced riders, young and not so young! Our fully-trained professional team will match you with the best horse for your ability, and make sure that your riding experience is safe and fun. Before every trek, there is a free riding lesson included in the price, but be sure to arrive a half an hour before your booked time.

Paradise Valley Ventures Horse Trekking is set on 700 acres of New Zealand pasture – a working farm with sheep and cattle. There is no better way to see rural life than by horseback. We are the Bay of Plenty’s only Qualmark approved horse trekking operation. Located in Paradise Valley, we are within easy driving distance of Rotorua and nearby other great attractions like the Agrodome and the Paradise Valley Wildlife Park.
