Haflinger horses from South Tyrol
Horse lovers will definitely recognise them: blond mane, silky long hair, the Haflinger - a true South Tyrolean that you can rely on.
The robust mountain horse owes its name to the pretty mountain village of Hafling above Meran.
For a long time it was used here as a workhorse, but today the Haflinger has become an uncomplicated and reliable friend of leisure riders and is on the rise worldwide as a family and leisure horse.
Get to know Hafling and the Meran region or other areas of South Tyrol on the back of a well-behaved, blond horse, gallop through the unique natural landscape or enjoy a cosy carriage ride - you will be thrilled.
