About Us

The Guy Fawkes Heritage Horse Association was formed by locals after the shocking aerial cull of 600 horses in the Guy Fawkes River National Park in 2000. Media coverage of the cull reached every far flung corner of the world and the Australian Government was pressured to 'please explain'.

A study was commissioned into the heritage value of the horses in the park with a commitment to manage them humanely if genuine heritage significance was proven. The Heritage Working Party found that that these horses have significant historical, military and cultural value. They are direct descendants of Australia's wartime cavalry horses, known as Walers, and are the only group of Australian Wild Horse to have this proven heritage value.

GFHHA have been actively rehoming hundreds of Heritage Horses every year since 2004 and reintroducing ordinary Australians to their sweet, loving temperaments, floating paces, loyalty and sure footedness.
