"Horseback Riding is Healthy!"

Experience a Family Horse Riding Vacation in the Austrian Mountains.

The Horse World at Hotel Kesselgrub in Altenmarkt-Zauchensee offers a variety of activities centered around horses. The host, Andrea Thurner, is a passionate horse lover and mother of four children. She has been fascinated by horses since her childhood and now shares her passion for these majestic animals with her guests, especially the children. Her extensive knowledge and love for horseback riding make the stay at the children's riding paradise an unforgettable experience.

Riding strengthens the muscles, especially those in the back, promotes coordination, and enhances communication skills. That's why the program during the Riding Holiday Week includes general theory, learning the right way to handle horses, and daily riding sessions in various skill levels. Additionally, the horses should be cared for and groomed daily under supervision. The riding holiday concludes with a fun riding tournament where proud parents can admire what the children have learned.

Our partner riding farms and riding schools provide professional riding instructors for trial lessons, trail riding, carriage rides, and much more – a true paradise for riding enthusiasts of all ages.
