Wattle Bank Farm Horse Riding

Small-group bush and beach horse trail rides on the Bass Coast for experienced riders.

A working farm at Wattle Bank, on the mainland side of the bridge, centred on natural horsemanship — private and group sessions, trail rides, three-day camping adventures on horseback and meditation retreats with the herd. It's education-led rather than a trail-ride mill.

The farm also grows gourmet oyster mushrooms (60–100kg a week), selling them alongside mushroom pies, quiches and grow kits, and runs mushroom workshops. An off-grid cabin, the Seahorse, offers farm-stay accommodation year-round.

Horse experiences must be booked through the website. The farm gate and pony rides run most Saturdays 10am–1pm, and a guided meditation happens one Sunday a month.
