The safety rules when going for a ride on a horse are - 1. You must wear Australian NZ standard approved riding helmet (ASNZ3838).

2. Must wear smooth sole, appropriate riding boots.

3. Appropriate riding jodphurs and shirt (preferably long sleeved to protect from sun).

4. All saddlery and bridle (equipment) must be in good condition, straps, reins, girth not cracked or broken. Girth should be firm, not too tight.

5. Apply sunscreen and carry a bottle of water, if possible.

6. If riding on the road (horses have right of way) can wear a fluro jacket and need to give hand signals when turning!

7. Never gallop on a public road, walk and sit trot only.

8. If riding with a group, keep in single file on side of road, with one horse length in between.

9. If a horse spooks, you should dismount immediately, and walk/lead it until it is calm.

10. Do not hit it, yell, scream or panic. Speak quietly to your horse and remount when it is safe to do so.

11. If you stay calm at all times, you will have a most enjoyable ride.

12. Horse-riding is a great way to enjoy the outdoors and appreciate a magnificent animal - the horse.
