High Country Horses is one of those things I didn’t do and really wish I had.

Everything about it looks unreal. You’re riding through these wide open valleys in Glenorchy with mountains all around you, and during lupin season it’s next level, fields of colorful flowers everywhere, it almost doesn’t look real.

It feels like such a peaceful, immersive way to experience the landscape, especially in a place that already feels straight out of a movie.

Definitely one I’d plan for next time.
