Diggers Rest Station 7 Day Muster

Date: June 3-9, 2017

Days: 7

Saddles Open: cancelled due to Covid

$2,800

We are offering a seven day muster in early June of 2017. This is an authentic cattle muster so there are some early starts and a few long days in the saddle.

Our cattle muster varies from day to day. However, a typical day would be an early rise, breakfast, saddle up and ride out to the area being mustered that day. We either take a small mob of coacher cattle with us, or we muster them up as we ride along. These quiet cattle are held by the riders while chopper, bull buggy and other riders run cattle into the coacher mob. Riders then walk the cattle back to the yards where they are processed (branded, ear marked, castrated, drenched, etc). When that’s done we walk them back out again. Some days we are based here at the station and some days/nights we are camping out. There is a weight limit of 90kg for the muster. Guests are spaced out between experienced stockmen, but must be competent riders.
