    This was amazing! The communication with Karolin was excellent from start to finish and she is the most lovely person to talk to whilst on a ride. Her horses are beautiful and well cared for, and her riding equipment is in excellent condition. The location is easy to find and just a short drive from Queenstown. Karolin ensured that we understood each horses quirks before setting off and catered the ride to our abilities. We had a couple of trots and canters across the hill tops whilst enjoying the most spectacular views. Our horses, Rasta and Clarkey were great. We didn't realise that there was so much to do in Cromwell. We stopped at a winery on the way, but next time would also enjoy the motor museum and gold mining museum and make it a whole day trip. My wife and I both highly recommend Golden Hills Horse Treks.

    Me and my partner had a great trek with Jasmine, we booked last minute and got to have a private trek. The horses are great and were very sensible which was perfect for my boyfriend who is a beginner, but we also did a couple of trots too. The scenery is awesome and it’s a cool way to see the area rather than just driving to viewpoints. Jasmine our host was great and gave us lots of recommendations for the area and also our next stop and was super knowledgeable. Will definitely be back to hopefully do one of the ‘experienced rides’ they offer. Thanks all involved:)
