Baringa is a small stud situated in the Inlet Valley of Attunga NSW, 21km's north of Tamworth (Country Music Capital).
Originally established as an Australian Pony Stud in the early 1950's by my grandparents Nancy & Max Kentwell, Baringa was home to the legendary Australian Pony Stallion "Lowlyn Silver Chief ". Nancy & Max had a great passion for the Australian Pony and enjoyed wonderful success in the show ring, as well as with the stud and their immortal sire "Chief".
After the retirement of Nancy & Max "Baringa" was handed over to my mother Claire to continue on with, along with her and my father's stud which was Wilgaroo Pony Stud. Although showing was quite limited due to other commitments both studs have had much success.
After the passing of Nancy & Max it was decide that the two studs be merged and in 1999 it was decided that the 'Baringa' prefix be retained.
With my love for the beautiful Riding Ponies and being more involved with the stud over recent years it was decided that the stud take a new direction in its breeding program, to breed and produce quality Riding Ponies.
Our aim is to breed quality Riding Ponies and Galloways with correct conformation, movement and temperament capable of winning at top level under saddle as well as in hand.
We hope that you enjoy your visit to our website.
