Day 1: Arrive in time for dinner and settle in. The first evening is an opportunity to get acquainted with your hosts and group that you will be riding with. Over dinner we find out more about peoples riding backgrounds and experience in order to match them with their ‘perfect mount’, and answer questions about the trek. 
Day 2: Breakfast. On the first morning we ensure that everyone has a horse and equipment that will suit them. Mount up and ride out. We ride out through the varied and scenic 800acres of Old Ingebyrah. Cattle graze peacefully next to resident emus, wallabies and wombats on the undulating plains and once we climb into the mountain foothills Lyre birds flit across shady trails ahead of us. We ride up into the surrounding Ingebyrah State Forest, brumbies are often seen in green grassy clearings amongst the forests of towering Alpine Ash. This loop ride of around 30km takes us into the beautiful forests of the Snowy Mountains and through brumby country where if lucky we are rewarded with sights of wild horses.
Day 3: Riders set off into the mountains, crossing snow grass plains we find the source of Rendezvous Creek and follow it down to the plains on narrow, twisting brumby trails. Enjoy canters up grassy hills and sightings of the plains animals in the afternoon, kangaroo, emu, deer, echidna and wombats are all to be found.
Day 4: Riders set off down the valley to visit old homestead ruins and then climb over the top of the range for a lunch with a view. Excellent views all around of The Charcoal Range,  Main Range and Ingebyrah valley are a highlight for groups willing to put in a big day. After a ‘Man from Snowy River Descent’ we travel across undulating, open and wooded country. 
Day 5: Ride towards Thredbo, penetrating further into the mountains, this day leads through forests of snowgums, following brumby and fire trails. Stopping at remains of old stockmen’s huts and old gold mining camps. Crossing the Little Boggy Plain, surrounded by mountains in their blue haze, climbing to peaks high above. Dinner and overnight. 
Day 6: This can be a final challenge of steep mountainous country, penetrating even further and higher into the mountains or an easygoing ride at a relaxed pace. When there is mustering to be done on the property groups are able to participate in a days stock work on horseback - it will be up to the group.
Day 7: Breakfast and departure after farewell.

Riding average is 20 miles a day, 5-7 hours in loop riders from the homestead. Every day covers different ground, with lots of variety in the landscape. All the riding is in pristine Snowy Mountain country, varying from open country to densely wooded steep mountain terrain and allowing ample time for photography and little stops along the way.
