Tyrendarra - Haldane Icelandic Horses

Haldane Icelandic Horses is Australia's oldest Icelandic horse stud, established in 1996. The stud is located on a 63-acre working farm called Little Eden, where visitors can meet the herd, learn about Icelandic horses and explore the farm with owner Amy Haldane.

The small-group and private Equine Interactive Experiences take place on the ground. Horse riding is not offered and the farm is not a petting zoo. Experiences may include walking through the farm, observing and interacting with the horses, hearing stories about the breed and learning about horse behaviour.

Most experiences are intended for adults and teenagers aged at least ten. Families with younger children can contact Amy to discuss a private experience that can be adapted to the children's ages, interests and confidence around horses.

Experiences:

Viking Adventure - 1.5-hour farm walk and Icelandic horse experience
Individual Private Equine Experience - a one-to-one session tailored to the participant
Private Group or Family Experience - tailored to the ages, interests and needs of the group
