Saddle up for a private 45-minute trail ride through vineyard slopes at Hallmark Farm, then unwind with a guided wine tasting, Croser Vintage sparkling and a romantic platter. A three-hour experience blending gentle riding with cellar-door hospitality in the Adelaide Hills.
You arrive at Hallmark Farm with the sun low over vine rows, horses at the hitching rail breathing steam into cool air. Guides fit you with a helmet and run a short briefing while you learn the horses’ names and temperaments — each mount chosen for comfort by staff from Megan Jones’s stable. The trail peels away from the yard onto grassy tracks that curve through vineyard terraces and open hill views, the Adelaide Hills pushing the horizon into layered ridgelines.

You arrive at Hallmark Farm with the sun low over vine rows, horses at the hitching rail breathing steam into cool air. Guides fit you with a helmet and run a short briefing while you learn the horses’ names and temperaments — each mount chosen for comfort by staff from Megan Jones’s stable. The trail peels away from the yard onto grassy tracks that curve through vineyard terraces and open hill views, the Adelaide Hills pushing the horizon into layered ridgelines.
The region’s cool-climate wines grew from 19th-century plantings on gentle slopes of weathered rock and loam; today small cellar doors and family farms line the lanes. Your ride is roughly 45 minutes on a designated course with easy canters where permitted and regular photo stops at panoramic points. After grooming and a brush-down you move to a private tasting: guided sips of local wines finished with a Croser Vintage sparkling and a shared platter of savory and sweet treats on a sunny deck or beside an indoor fire depending on season.
Practical bits: the whole experience runs about three hours, helmets provided, and the tour is private and suitable for most riders though it isn’t recommended for pregnant guests or those with spinal injuries. Expect unpaved farm tracks, occasional sedimentary outcrops underfoot, and simple mounting blocks. Bring closed-toe shoes, a wind layer, and a camera; plan to arrive a little early for fitting and warm-up. This is a low-impact, romantic way to combine light equestrian time with a focused cellar-door experience in the heart of the Adelaide Hills.
