The horse riding shoes that you wear when riding a horse is a very important part of riding safety. In the unlikely event that you fall from a horse, you want your foot to come out of the stirrup smoothly without getting caught. Therefore we require that all riders wear a boot with a smooth sole (not too grippy) and a small heel (1 – 1.5inches).
This means that thongs, sandals, crocs, high heels, wedges, joggers/runners, and hiking boots are not permitted.
Here’s some examples of what is acceptable:
Travelling, and don’t have suitable shoes?
No worries! We have boots available for hire for $5 pp – just select the option when you book.
