About This Experience

In Adelaide Hills: Your horse comes from Hallmark Farm, owned by dual Olympian and silver medallist Megan Jones and James Deacon. After a helmet fitting, briefing and some basic manoeuvres at the hitching rail, you set off on a 45-minute guided trail ride through the Petaluma vineyards, with commentary on the site's history and stops for photos along the way. Back at the cellar door, the Croser & Croissants brunch begins: a Croser Sparkling tasting — handcrafted in the traditional method since 1987 — paired with buttery croissants and fresh seasonal fruit, served on the deck in warmer months or by the fire in winter. Riders must wear long pants and closed-toe shoes with a small heel; Hallmark Farm provides helmets and all safety gear. Minimum riding age is 10, and a liability waiver applies to the horse-riding component. • Helmet fitting, briefing and horse introduction at the hitching rail • 45-minute guided trail ride with vineyard views and photo stops • Croser Sparkling tasting at the Petaluma Cellar Door • Croissants and fresh seasonal fruit to finish
