On 9 September 2026, this equestrian ride offers two departure times: 9am and 1:30pm. After grooming your horse, you'll set off accompanied by two Park Ambassador guides for a nature ride combining forest discovery and autumn observation.

The programme includes mushroom picking in the forest and listening to the deer rut, the characteristic call made by male deer during mating season. The guides will help you identify edible mushroom species and introduce you to the secrets of local wildlife.

Wear appropriate attire for horseback riding and forest conditions in early September. This excursion suits riders with regular practice who can manage their mount outdoors. Remember to bring containers for collecting mushrooms.
