SOUTH AFRICA: Cattle Drive $2,800


*BAD PONY APPROVED*

This ride is so good that 2026 is fully booked. Grab a 2027 saddle while they last.

working cattle farm in the Eastern Cape, in the family since 1898. Four cattle drives a year, and you ride as part of the team. Real herding, real stockmen and women, real Karoo.

Terrain is rocky and steep, so above-average fitness is non-negotiable. Expect to dismount and chase the odd runaway calf on foot.

The pace: "the fastest way to move cattle is slowly." Just you, the mountains, and the quiet.

BEST FOR: Experienced riders, fit, unfazed by tough terrain, and up for the real thing.

BOOK: Karoo Ranching
