A wonderful school holiday activity – a horse drawn country carriage ride in the Macedodn Ranges at Carlsruhe! We are located half way between Woodend and Kyneton, not far from the Calder Highway turnoff.
We drive through farm land with rolling hills and see farm animals, often kangaroos, mature European trees and native bush, beautiful views to Mount Macedon and Hanging Rock.
Ride in a comfortable all-weather wagon which takes 4 average sized adults and children. Easy to enter with two low steps and hand rails. Rugs provided.
Or
Ride in an 1890s buggy which takes up to 3 average sized adults.
