King of the Ranges Stockmans Challenge and Bush Festival

King of the Ranges

A celebration of the traditional skills of Australian stockmen and women, showcasing the tasks they use daily, in an intense competitive atmosphere consisting of six preliminary events- cattle work, pack horse, bareback obstacle, whip cracking, horse shoeing and cross-country jumping to determine the top ten scores. These finalists then try to catch and lead a wild horse and ride a buckjumper to determine the King of the Ranges

It's also a great Bush Festival featuring horse training, dog high jump, sulky driving, children's goat racing, billy boiling, post splitting, barrel racing, bar, food and trade stalls, live music and bush poetry and much more. This is a great family weekend to enjoy a demonstration of the Australian Bushman's skills and the history of the Australian bush in a beautiful setting at the foot of the Liverpool Ranges.
