Be a part of Australia’s premier representative body for Trail Horse Riders.
Ride with confidence when you have an ATHRA club membership.
ATHRA provides members with great value and benefits.
The Melbourne Trail Horse Riders Club enjoys a reputation as an adventurous, fun and safe club where members must demonstrate good horsemanship and competence in walk, trot and canter, in control, in a group.
Rides are held monthly across Victoria in accordance with the club's Annual Ride Calendar. These vary from social day rides to weekend and week-long camps, on occasion with accommodation.
The riding is a combination of all paces depending on the Ride Notice description, the terrain, the weather conditions, the group's preferences and the horse and rider combinations on the day.
Prospective members are welcome and are required to complete two rides with the club using ATHRA Day Memberships before being considered for membership by the committee.
Horse and rider safety are paramount and riders are expected to abide by the club's rules, ATHRA's code of Conduct and the instruction of ride officials
