Our country's happiness ...
... can be found on the back of a horse. We think there's a lot of truth in this. More precisely, happiness can be found on the back of our Haflinger horses, a particularly mild-tempered breed that is very safe to ride. Haflingers have a long tradition on the farm: in the past they were used as pack animals and for transport. Nowadays, they are bred as family pets and for leisure purposes. This breed has maintained its good character, docile temperament and hardiness over the course of time. Almost all our horses were born and raised on our farm, and we break them in ourselves and get them used to being ridden. For this reason, we have a very special emotional bond with our horses.
Get ready to mount our horses and ride out into the meadows, the woods and the mountain pastures. Horseback riding is also possible in winter, because our horses are shod with special winter shoes, and so can even trot comfortably through snow.
We offer a wide range of options for beginners and experts: from riding lessons on the farm, to care of Haflinger horses, to guided horse rides.
