Apart from riding lessons, the resort also offers trail riding for beginners and intermediate riders.

For total beginners, the staff will lead the horses and walk the horses into the trail side by side with the riders. It is a relatively safe ride as the horses are pretty calm.

As I arrived to the resort in the afternoon, the receptionist together with the resort manager, Dennis took care of my check-in to the resort.

Dennis is your friendly host who is willing to go the extra miles to take care of your needs. Definitely A+ for his attitude in offering great hospitality to his guests.

Upon arrival, we had lunch in the cafe. The setting of the cafe is tastefully decorated to provide a cosy environment.

I booked for 2 trail rides during my 3-day stay.

Before mounting on the horse, Halim checked if we can handle the horses on our own before letting us out. The staff helped me with mounting on my horse.

We warmed up the horses in the arena before heading out.

The trail offers a lot of greenery. Here are some views from the horse back during our trail ride.

Of course, not to forget some photos with my hairy friend in the palm oil estate.

Here we are at Amigo Horse Riding stable!

Amigo Horse Riding stables is owned and operated personally by Mos, an Iranian who has been in Malaysia for decades and running the stables for more than 10 years. Most importantly, Mos is a very skillful and experienced horseman.

My friends and I booked 2 rides with Mos. One in the Sunday evening and another on Monday morning. When we arrived, Mos has already parked our horses at the round pen while the groomer was tacking up the horses for us.

Kai Sing wanted to use her own endurance stirrup. Mos was helping her to set it up.

We had a few minutes of walking in the arena and Mos lead us out to the trail.

The horses were pretty calm and easy to work with. The trail was mainly flat land. We started off with walking, some trotting and a little bit of slow cantering. We arrived to the river bank in about 30 minutes later.

We continued our trail…

There were very few rocky paths. I believe Mos purposely pick the softer ground which are good for the hoof.

Pretty scenic trail to ride on a Sunday evening.

You can definitely cool your eyes with so much of greenery along the trail.

Mos also took us into Tanjong Puteri Golf Resort for quick tour.

Jac was having so much fun on her horse back on our way heading back to stables.

Passing by the entrance the stables on our way back.

Mos is keeping a lovely parrot in his stable that can speak “I love you” in a really cute voice.

We spent some time hanging out in the stables and were chatting with Mos. He shared his experiences and many other funny stories running the stables . Mos is definitely one of the coolest guys you can hang out with in the stables. It was a a great time and time flied! Before we knew it, the sky turned dark and it was time for us to head for dinner.

We ended the day with a delicious crab meal in JB town.

On the next day we have a morning ride with Mos. He led us out through another exit which is next to Tanjong Puteri Golf Resort.

Tanjong Puteri Golf Resort is on the left and stable is on the right. We were following Mos to walk till end end of the street to enter the trail.

We entered the trail…

Turned back for photo in the terrain.

We head to the river bank that we visited yesterday.
