Made a map for SWEC
Silver Water Equestrian Centre (SWEC) is located in southern NSW Australia just off the border with Victoria. 150 acres of green rolling hills, eucalypt forests, and valleys which are perfect for trail rides, Carooga Creek starts in the valley with a magnificent waterfall and winds its way through the property. Just 30 minutes south of the snowy mountains, riders have access to snowy trails through Kosciusko National Park.
SWEC has been run by the Silverwaters for generations, currently in the hands of Lauren and Thomas Silverwater and their 17-year-old daughter Kayla. SWEC breeds, rehabilitates, and trains horses, recently expanding to dressage, showjumping, cross country, and flat racing, However, riders at SWEC are ready to give any discipline a go!
SWEC offers boarding, and snowy ride tours during the snow season in the national park. The stables partake in a rescue and rehabilitation program of mistreated horses and will take on any horse, SWEC Also captures, trains, and rehomes Australian Brumbies as part of a ‘Save the Brumbies’ campaign.
