The 4-days/3-nights Children’s Riding Camp is ideal for youngsters wanting to learn about horses. Each child is assigned a horse or pony to look after, including feeding, grooming, stable management and learning how to ride. When not riding, the children are kept entertained with a host of other activities like nature treks, cooking classes, kite flying and ball games.
Riders Resort has access to miles of treks and jungle trails, perfect for riding, mountain biking (bring your own bike) and hiking. Riders can choose from
a number of adventure trails through palm oil plantations, virgin forests and the adjoining Sedenak National Park, lasting for one-and-a-half hours. Each trail is clearly marked and poses different challenges to the rider. Beginners are accompanied by guides
but are advised to have
at least one riding lesson beforehand. Comprehensive livery and stabling facilities are available for riders’ own horses.
Riders Resort is not just for riders. Golfers enjoy special guest green fees
(no membership required) at the Legends Golf and Country Resort. Designed by Jack Nicklaus, this award-winning course is one of the finest in Southeast Asia. Anglers will appreciate the fishing pond (tackle available for hire), while artistically-inclined guests may prefer Chinese brush painting lessons. After hours of physical activity, guests can relax in the Lodge’s outdoor jacuzzi or enjoy
an invigorating traditional massage.
At Rider’s Café, the award-winning chef serves up hearty farmhouse breakfasts, sumptuous barbeque lunches, Devonshire teas served on the verandah (Saturdays only) and gourmet dinners.

The Resort offers a range of weekday and weekend packages for riders and non-riders; advanced booking is strongly recommended due to
its popularity. It is also a popular venue for wedding receptions, seminars, conferences and team building retreats.

experiences. You don’t have to ride to meet the friendly horses.
