Getting there

JESTERS FLAT is a three-hour drive from Perth, 18 kilometres outside of Margaret River. All major airlines fly direct to Perth from most capital cities.

Playing there

THE MARGARET RIVER RIDE is suitable for all riding abilities, from beginners to those returning to the saddle, offering instruction and assistance to gain confidence in a safe and fun environment. I began the week barely proficient at trotting and ended it cantering along beaches and riding through the bush, jumping trees and dodging kangaroos.
