Why are the cattle being driven?
The cattle are being driven home to be processed through our yards before returning back to the bush. In the yards they will be drenched, mouthed ect and any cows getting on in age will stay behind at the home block and they will be replaced with younger heifers which will go to the more challenging conditions of the sub-alpine high country.
How much does it cost?
$2,200 if you bring your own horse
$2,700 if you need a horse provided
A $500 deposit is needed to secure a position on the Droving Trip
