On the Yala Ranch family estate, alongside the Dumbéa river, you set off on a horseback ride in a relaxed, no-frills atmosphere. The route follows the river and takes you across it on horseback, a memorable experience that breaks from the usual riding outing. Younger children, with a parent along, get their first taste of pony riding on the grounds at a pace matched to their age. Access to the Haute Dumbéa park opens straight from the ranch, extending the outing for those keen to explore further. Yala Ranch holds the « 2 horseshoes » label awarded by the Regional Equestrian Tourism Committee. Book your ride.
