Following the beautiful drive along the shores of Lake Wakatipu, passing Ithilien and stopping en-route to admire The Misty Mountains, you eventually arrive in Paradise where your 1½ hour ride starts. This slow paced ride at Paradise, 22km north of Glenorchy, overlooks 1 of New Zealand's 3 World Heritage Areas and takes you through the golden woods of Lothlórien, passing Amon Hen, and as the track opens up the views of the Wizard's Vale and the mighty peak of Methedras are breathtaking. Paradise Station is private property and has been very popular with movie directors who have chosen to film scences from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Wolverine, The Lovely Bones, Tracker not to mention The Lord of the Rings.
Probably the most scenic horse ride in the world, and a must for The Lord of the Rings' fans. It is a walking pace ride suitable for beginner riders.
