Welcome,
Kaimanawa Heritage Horses (KHH) is a non profit organisation dedicated to the welfare of Kaimanawa horses in both the wild and domestic environments. The Kaimanawa horse is a unique and historically important link to New Zealand’s recent past. Identified as a breed with distinct and unique characteristics, the Kaimanawa horse has proved to be a great all round riding pony.
We are very grateful to award-winning photographer Jan Maree Vodanovich for donating prints of not one but three of her fantastic photos to the trust.
Our trip to the ranges is being pushed out a week as a result of NZ Army manoeuvres.
The trip will now be happening on Sunday, 1 April (not a joke). All the other details are the same.
We are getting in touch with all those who have paid so far.
For those of you still planning to be there, be aware that we have one bus full and are well on the way to filling the second one. So, register your interest and get your payment in to lock in your seat.
Be sure to get your payment for your show entry to us by 16 February to avoid the late fee ($10 per horse).
Payment details, forms etc are all on the National Show page.
See you Sunday, 26 February 2012, 9:30am, Pukekohe A&P Showgrounds.

Come and join us on Sunday, 25 March 2012 to visit the wild bands of Kaimanawa horses. The area they roam is strictly controlled by the New Zealand Army and is off limits to the public.
Once a year KHH takes a guided bus tour to see the wild horses in the environment they have evolved in over the last 135 years. A great opportunity to understand where your Kaimanawa came from as well as seeing some of New Zealand’s most breathtaking high country wilderness.
After the trip KHH will have some great branded leisurewear for sale (cash or cheque only) to remember your Kaimanawa wild experience.
We are very pleased to announce that John Fleet of Pukekohe will be the judge at the Kaimanawa Heritage Horses 2012 Annual National Show.
John joins us with a huge wealth of knowledge of horses and equestrian showing.
The Show will be held on Sunday, 26 February at the Pukekohe showgrounds. We encourage all Kaimanawas and their owners to come along and have some fun. There are in-hand and ridden classes for all ages and abilities and we especially welcome first time competitors.
We have a great line up of sponsored prizes for competitors as well as medals, trophies and ribbons.
There will be food and fantastic KHH branded leisurewear available for sale so even if you don’t bring a horse, bring your family for a great day out. For more information and entry details on this years show check out the National Show pages.
We have posted the details for the Kaimanawa Heritage Horses National Show held Sunday, 26 February 2012 at Pukekohe A&P Showgrounds.
