The rides begin on the beautiful

Reserve. Riders are treated to spectacular views of the Du Toit's Kloof
Mountain range, the Swartberg farming areas and the majestic Table Mountain
to the south.
We offer a special 3 hour beach ride on the coast of Cape Town. It features
gallops on the beach, plus exciting rides through the sand dunes with
spectacular views of Cape Point, False Bay and Hangklip.
During the annual hunt season, we hire out horses to experienced riders, who
wish to enjoy the exciting drag hunts organized by the Cape Hunt Club

History
Wine Valley Horse trails was started 16 years ago in Stellenbosch, South
Africa, by Michelle Mazurkiewicz, who is a SANEF qualified instructor.
Michelle has been a competitive show jumper and eventer, since 1980 and has
experience in most equine sports and activities.
In 1998, Michelle moved Wine Valley Horse Trails to beautiful Rhebokskloof
Wine Farm in Paarl. Here, her clients are able to ride, then relax and enjoy
first class lunches and meals at either of the farm's 2 restaurants.
Rhebokskloof caters for weddings too, and Wine Valley Horse Trails often
provides a wedding carriage for these and other events.
Before moving to Paarl in 1998, Michelle met Gavin Mey of Movie Horses &
Stunt Services. They formed a partnership and now service the local and
international film and commercial advertising industry with trained horses
and mules.
