Noordhoek Beach Rides
Noordhoek Beach Rides - Our stables are situated in Kommetjie, connected to Noordhoek via Long Beach with its rural country feel, charming local shops and restaurants.
It is connected to the Cape Town region by the magnificent Chapman's Peak drive, one of the world's best routes with breathtaking views of the Atlantic coast.
Long Beach is over 8km long and backed by National park-protected wetlands, as a result offers the best beach outride in Cape Town. Our 1 hour, 30 min starts with negotiating wetlands (20min) before you reach the unspoiled stretch of beach with magnificent views of Chapman’s Peak and The Centinal.
A walk along the well-known beach offers horse riders a variety of wildlife and the washed-up ruins of Kakapo, a shipwreck that dates back to 1900. Our beach rides are suitable for both complete novice and expert levels of experience.
Note: Please keep in mind that this is a picturesque walking horseback trip. Unfortunately, there is no trotting or cantering allowed.
