Do you have any comments about the accommodation and food?

The second night on trail the accommodation was basic which we expected, however the room we were allocated meant we had to walk through another occupied bedroom to access the bathroom. This was ok during awake hours but felt uncomfortable for me to walk through during the night and my husband had to find an ‘ alternative arrangement’ for using the toilet overnight- this needs looking at. It’s ok for four friends of the same sex but didn’t feel comfortable for a couple and two dingoes who didn’t know each other.

The hunting lodge was also in need of repair and upgrade but the food here was very good.

Other accommodation was excellent and food far better on the main than expected.

Do you have any other feedback for us?

Definitely a very good trail. Will do again at some point. As stressed in the information, you do need to be able to manage potentially strong horses out in open spaces and be riding fit to cope with long hours in the saddle.
We loved it.
