Mill Valley Ranch Riding Programs (Tynong North)
Mill Valley Ranch is a Christian Youth Holiday Camp which mainly caters for the 10 to 17 year age groups. We have accommodation for approximately 200 campers in the school term, and approximately 90 in the holidays. School groups and weekend groups come during term and school holiday camps are often booked out during the holidays. Horse Riding is our most popular activity, but archery, ropes, lake activities are just a few of the other attractions.
Horse Riding Programs
Mill Valley Ranch provides a wonderful opportunity for riders of all ages to experience and connect with horses in our Western Horse Riding Program. Enjoy riding in our professional facilities and through the beautiful surrounds at Mill Valley Ranch.
School Riding Programs
Our structured School Riding Program gives students an opportunity to ride in small groups and develop skills focussing on controlling their horse and basic horsemanship under the supervision of our Horse Safety Australia qualified instructors. Students develop confidence and character through this activity which also encourages leadership qualities. Our riding program focuses on safety, education and fun using well trained horses that cater for all riding abilities.
Holiday Riding Programs
During our Holiday Riding Program riders work through a series of levels (Cowpoke to Horseman) designed to enhance the rider's ability and understanding of horses. Ranchers are required to demonstrate a series of skills and tasks to progress to the next level. Many of our ranchers and staff have gone on to professional careers in the horse industry, as well as many developing a lifelong connection and enjoyment of horse riding.
Roundups (Holiday Camps)
Our Roundups (Holiday Camps) are held during all the Victorian school holiday breaks throughout the year, with activities specifically tailored to each age group. Roundups give the opportunity for the widest variety of Ranch Activities and for the development of riding skills. Children of all skill levels are encouraged to come and have a go. Many Ranchers love to come back time after time to reconnect with their camp friends and the staff at the Ranch.
At Roundups we aim to build a sense of community amongst the Ranchers and Staff where we all look out for one another. This is encouraged through team building activities where Ranchers can also learn some responsibilities involved in working alongside others. Ranchers are also responsible for keeping their accommodation and activity areas neat and tidy.
