Live the rhythm. Ride with purpose. Stay wild.

What to Expect

If you're an adventurous, horse-loving soul with a willingness to muck in and ride out, this horse riding holiday is for you.

You'll help care for and ride our beloved trail horses, assist with local beach rides, and support our team in hosting riding guests from around the world.

Your role goes beyond horses. You're part of something bigger — responsible tourism that uplifts community, honors the land, and keeps traditions alive.

For 1 to 12 weeks, you’ll step into a life where your work matters — schooling, fitness training, guiding rides, and supporting a close-knit team in one of the most breathtaking corners of the world.

This is for the independent, horse-mad adventurer who thrives on new experiences, wants to connect with horses (or get back into riding),  loves getting involved, who finds joy in everyday beauty and honest work. You'll ride, laugh, learn, and maybe — like many before you — find a piece of yourself here.

Eat, sleep, ride, repeat.

Who You’ll Become

You’ll live like a local.

You’ll eat, sleep, ride, repeat ~ and discover the joy of a slower, simpler, richer way of being.
You’ll form friendships that last a lifetime, with both people and horses.
And you’ll leave changed ~ as many do ~ by the magic of the Wild Coast.

Escape to reconnect.

Why join us?

Daily riding, horse care, and hands-on experience.

Stay in a friendly coastal village with big skies and warm hearts. Live like a local. 

Build friendships that cross continents.

Become part of a legacy that has welcomed riders for over 25 years.

Some volunteers return. Some never leave. All are changed.

If you’d rather relax than help out, we also offer Kei River Stay & Ride Holidays for those wanting to simply ride and reconnect.

Live with purpose.
