About us
Hawkesbury Valley Equestrian Centre is owned by Grahame & Renee Ware, who are passionate equine enthusiasts, having competed and trained in many different disciplines over their years in the horse industry.
Grahame Ware is a 4th generation horse master for films, with his specialty being harness & liberty horses. Grahame has spent over 25 years working full time as a horse trainer, which has included breaking in young horses to saddle & harness, training liberty horses, and competing in several different horse disciplines.
Renee Ware has been riding her entire life and started competing in cutting events at the age of 8 years old. Over the past 6 years she has started competing in Campdrafting & Stock Horse Shows.
Grahame & Renee joined forces in 2012 working with horses on the set of ‘The Great Gatsby’
In 2013, they were approached to re-open the former Scenic Hills Riding Ranch in Denham Court, which they opened under the name of Sydney Trail Riding Centre… It was a great opportunity to offer a unique place where everyday people can meet and ride the horses they use on film and television.
After 4 successful years of trail riding and helping people, Grahame & Renee wanted to create their very own centre where their amazing team could train people and horses intensively on a smaller more intimate scale.
