What to wear
When riding:
- All riders must wear an Australian standard approved riding helmet.
- All riders must wear approved boots with small heels with little or no tread - runners or work boots are not permitted.
- Sensible, comfortable clothes - not loose or flapping, or tight. They should protect against external abrasions or weather - we suggest a top with collar a sleeves.
- Do not wear jewelry that could get caught or lost, or hairstyles that obscure vision when riding. We also suggest shatter proof glasses.
When leading or handling:
- Footwear - sturdy, fully enclosed shoes or boots which protect the foot. Parents or leaders will not be allowed to approach any horse with sandals, thongs or inappropriate footwear.
- Sensible, comfortable clothes.
There is a small supply of boots and helmets for you to use for your convenience and for those one off rides, however this is a free service and these boots & helmets may not fit all sizes. It is advised you purchase your own - we suggest Horseland Canberra.
