The Clydesdales during a trip to Mt Cook, South Island

 
 
The Pirongia Clydesdales are the new identity of New Zealand's well-known DB Draught Clydesdales.

Available for a host of horse drawn activities such as weddings, birthdays, picnics, working demonstrations, wagon rides, educational visits and driving tuition, the Pirongia Clydesdales are a professionally run operation where safety is paramount.

Located on the outskirts of the Pirongia Village, Waikato, New Zealand, the Pirongia Clydesdales are only 20 minutes from Hamilton and 8 minutes from Te Awamutu.

Owner/Operators Nick & Jill van der Sande have extensive experience in driving teams of horses all over the world.  They have also worked on film sets throughout Australasia and have a variety of animals available to perform for film or television work.

Our facilities include a carriage and harness museum, stables and an ideal area for a variety of functions. We are open seven days a week by appointment only, please contact us for details about how you can hire our Clydesdale team or function venue.

A visit to the Pirongia Clydesdales is a worthwhile, interesting and most enjoyable experience.  I hope you enjoy looking through our website.
