Kesselgrubs Horse.World. at the Kids.Horseriding.Hotel.

The great passion of Andrea Thurner, your host and mother of four, are horses and ponies. Therefore she created a diverse Kids.Ponies.Eldorado. at her hotel. Kids pony riding as well as caring for and feeding of the horses are part of the kid’s program.

Nine of the hotel’s own horses, all fond of children, are in the hotel’s riding stable – for example Haflinger, Icelandic and warmblood horses.

For years the hotel is a member of “Reitarena Austria”, a group of hotels all over Austria specialising in horse riding holidays, and therefore a specialist in the area of kid’s horse riding holidays. Kids have the possibility to become real riding masters in special kid’s riding weeks that can be booked additionally to your holiday stay.

These weeks contain general theory, learning the right handling of the horse and daily horse riding units, in different ability groups. Additionally the horses have to be cared for and fed. These weeks end with a cheerful horse show, where the proud parents can marvel at the things learned.

Discover the greatest happiness on earth by sitting in the saddle of a horse and spend gorgeous days out in nature including professionally guided rides. In the nearby riding stables, native Haflinger horses, Irish gypsy and warm-blood horses are available. There are ideal facilities for riding: indoor riding-hall, well maintained jumping areas, internationally defined dressage rings as well as wonderfully mountainous riding trips.

Since the region of Altenmarkt-Zauchensee is equipped with a well-signed 200 km trail riding network at an altitude between 850 and 2,000 m for experts, a ride becomes a lovely way to experience nature. The trail riding is organized in cooperation with a partner.
