NEW: Our infrared cubicle "Physiotherm" with various programmes to choose from (bronchial, migrane, diet programme and much more) is available to you for deep heat treatment of the exceptional kind for relaxation!
Because our horses are not shod, there is no horse riding in winter. Care of the horses and help in the stable is of course possible.
We - your hosts - are farmers, who have specialised in horses. Here you can ride and jump, but also simply enjoy being near the animals. But don't be afraid:
While "horse-crazy" sons and daughters swing into the saddle,
parents have the opportunity, of enjoying a holiday in the country and the special
hospitality on the Gorehof farm.
Our ponies:
Our dwarf rabbits and lionhead rabbits
You are free to stroke our rabbits or look after them in their outdoor cage. Fresh grass for the rabbits is always required.
Our kittens
If you are lucky, just when you are on holiday kittens will have been born on the farm.
Miauw - miauw!
You can visit our goats on the goat pasture.
WARNING!: They bleat the whole day long!
Our pigs
Our pigs look forward to your visit in the pigsty and are waiting for you to help feed them.
Raphael and Elias will show you how.
In addition, there are also two mini pigs: Hänsel and Gretel - oink!
Our chickens
On request, you can have a fresh egg for breakfast every day. You are welcome to help Elias collect them. We like to do this work together in the evening. During the day the chickens need their peace and quiet and do not like to be disturbed.
Guinea pigs
The don't like to be taken out of the cage.
So just stroke them a little when you feed them.
Chirping young
Sometimes there are also baby swallows on the Gorehof
to marvel at - WATCH OUT - be very careful when you go and look at them, then you can see how baby birds are fed by their parents.
Say "hello" to cows & Co.
On the neighbouring pastures there are cows, calves and sometimes even a bull to look at.
You must never enter the pasture because they are not real playmates. There are many animals on the Gorehof to stroke and love.
Lady, Lilli, Lisa, Dorli and Sultan.
The ponies are the favourites of all children!
They are spoilt by everyone with sugar, apples, carrots and bread -
and of course they enjoy it.
In our spaciously designed horse riding arena, every child, according to its age,
learns how to correctly handle our ponies/Haflinger Our riding instructor lovingly supervises
this interaction between child and horse.There is also a lot of
fun!
Our Haflinger:
Ria, Flora and Arthos are suitable for experienced riders.
