All horses are specifically selected based on your needs from seasoned steeds of the famous Hallmark Farm in Woodside owned by Megan and husband James Deacon. 

After the briefing and any questions you will saddle up and perform some basic manoeuvres while supported by Megan, then set off for approximately 45 mins guided trail ride around a designated course. There will be opportunities to stop for photos and some magnificent hills and vineyard views along the way as Megan and team will provide commentary on the site and her story.

After returning your steed to the hitching rail for some rest, photos and a brush down, you will proceed to the Petaluma Glass Room for an private and intimate lunch and wine experience hosted by Megan and team, where you can hear about Megan’s amazing equestrian journey and triumphs and see her Olympic and world championship medals. The Glass Room is named after the stunning ceiling installation of 540 wine glasses that have been carefully placed to resemble the rolling contours of the Adelaide Hills, complementing the views of our neighbouring vineyards.
