Rudi 1,730 Posted August 29, 2009 Where abouts in Brisbane are you headed? There are lots of horse riding places around where we are, but I don't know how much is costs sorry. Love Rudi x Belle Vee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
calNgary 8,549 Posted August 29, 2009 Hi there isn't as many riding schools about as in the UK , mainly because lots of people have their own horses. There are quite a few trail riding centers all over Brisbane though, i go to this one at Tamborine Mountain Tamborine Mountain Trail Rides Horse Riding Thunder Park QLD Australia it costs $50 for an hour. Have a look at this link for other places to ride,, Horseriding in Brisbane | ourbrisbane.com Hope this helps Cal x If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place... If you get a chance,take it, If it changes your life,let it. Nobody said it would be easy they just said it would be worth it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ozzierock Posted December 31, 2009 This is a great one. They do day rides and 2 day rides staying overnight in the stockmans camp. We have done the 2 day ride and loved it. Lots of bonding with our grown boys and their partners. Mountain Lake Adventures - Scenic Horserides Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sammipage Posted March 7, 2012 We Are thinking about moving to Brisbane or Perth and I am hoping to bring my friesian too. Need to know if there are DIY liveries available? Also would love to buy a small holding but don't want to be too isolated. I am thinking this will be expensive though? Any ideas anyone on the best suburbs for owning small holding or suburbs best for living close to livery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vixxy666 81 Posted March 7, 2012 I'd had a look at costs of horse riding near rockhampton (7 hours from brisie nice for a holiday) and the prices seem very reasonable comparing to the UK directly look about the same but then you get paid more over here so looks to be cheaper, but i suppose prices are going to vary everywhere. Im sure itll be worth every penny being able to hack out in some beautiful places Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess it depends where your work will be but around Jimboomba, Beaudesert and quite a few areas of the Gold Coast hinterland have very reasonably priced acerage. Beaudesert is known for its horses and stables and has most ammenities on hand. The down side is from Beaudesert centre your looking at about an hour's commute to the inner city , if you ever need to go or work there.

Lots of research to do yet as this will be truly life changing. Would be easy if it was just me and my hubby, but we have two dogs, six horses and six children between us. Most wont be coming so lots to think about !! Just in early days of research at the moment. ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
