We formed in July 1997, and aim to preserve, promote, and protect the strain of the Kaimanawa wild horses in the wild, as well as those in captivity.
Our Society held the first Kaimanawa show in November 1998. We have since held more shows which are used as an anchorage for people to gain confidence in their horses to take them further.
While we have made our shows fun, no stress days, we have used experienced judges who have had fun judging these events and can see no reason why the Kaimanawa's could not be up there with the best of them.
Please sign the guestbook on your way out!
Thanks for visiting the Kaimanawa Horse Breed Society.
Already a number of these horses are competing in open classes. We know this is not for everyone, but the option is there.
Our Society has progressed in the last 3 years and we have built ourselves a solid foundation to carry on.
We have lots of new ideas and welcome anyone who would like to join our Society, be it as a member only, or to register your Kaimanawa horse. We have a branding iron which is registered with the NZ Thoroughbred Breeders Association (Inc).
Our aim is to still have a viable herd in the Kaimanawa ranges, and hope the horses can have a reprieve.

Oh well, certainly beats the native grass!"
