Chris Hemsworth goes horse riding in the countryside

Chris Hemsworth might be known as a Hollywood megastar, thanks to his roles in movies like Thor and The Avengers.

But at home, the 37-year-old actor is a doting father to three children with his wife Elsa Pataky, and enjoys living the quiet life in Byron Bay, NSW.

On Wednesday, Chris shared a glimpse of his family life by posting a video to Instagram of himself horse riding in the countryside.

Both Chris and a friend off camera could be heard laughing hysterically as the kids continually attempted to thwart their famous dad.

At one point, one of the boys said: ‘Dad, I don’t wanna go to the lake!’

Chris and Elsa moved to Bryon Bay with their children, daughter India Rose, eight, and twin sons Sasha and Tristan, seven, in 2014.

They live in the suburb of Broken Head, a 20-minute drive from central Byron, in a mega-mansion estimated to be worth $30million.

They spent years renovating their home, which sits on 4.2 hectares of land, with the help of Sydney-based MCK Architects – but the development faced some resistance from locals, who compared it to a multi-storey car park or shopping centre.

The property features a 50-metre infinity pool, a large Indigenous mural, two bars and a gym complex including steam, sauna and massage rooms.

The home’s 50-metre pool alone is estimated to have cost at least $400,000, and the enormous indoor mural could be worth as much as $100,000.
