About the event

Skijoring

 Skijoring - spectator extravaganza

 

 

Skijoring came to Australia for the first time at Mt Buller in 2025 and this year it's BACK with a stunning spectator event!

What on earth is skijoring? Great question! Skijoring has a long and thrilling history across Europe, North America and Canada where the combination of horses and skiing has been an exciting part of winter for decades and involves a skier being pulled behind a galloping horse on snow. The word comes from the Norwegian for 'ski driving' and this thrilling sport even made a one-off appearance in the Olympics in St Moritz back in 1928!

If you've ever seen the incredible action (and fashion) from skijoring events overseas this is for you.

Bring your biggest fluffy winter coat, your western boots, your favourite cowboy hat and join us for the 'must have' ticket of the spring calendar.
