Om helemaal te genieten van het gevarieerde Zuid-Tiroolse landschap, is paardrijden of een rijtuigtochtje ideaal. Overal in Zuid-Tirol vind je maneges die paardrijdtochten en rijtuigtochtjes aanbieden, maar bijvoorbeeld ook paardrijdweken en disciplines zoals dressuur en western. Zuid-Tirol is dé heimat van de haflingerpaarden. Deze werden oorspronkelijk op de boerderijen gebruikt als werkpaarden. Ze beschikken over speciale eigenschappen, waardoor ze ideale metgezellen zijn voor kinderen en lange ritten. Het zijn robuuste, standvastige en goedgezinde paarden. Ze blinken vooral uit in de disciplines dressuur, springen en western.

The Minert Riding Stable - Horse Love at First Sight
We’ve been in operation since the summer of 2022 and offer a wide range of activities for all horse lovers, whatever the season.
Enthusiasm for horses often starts at a very early age, so we give our youngest guests, from around 2 years old, the chance to have their first playful contact with horses. They get to groom and look after our ponies and horses in a safe environment and let them experience their first guided pony rides and attempts at riding. Pony time for the little ones can also take place in the company of their parents or in groups. Besides riding, there’s plenty of cuddling, playing, and child-friendly learning about horses with lots of fun, games and exercise.
Of course we also offer riding lessons for teenagers and adults (individually and in small groups), as well as unforgettable trailrides (for advanced riders) in beautiful natural surroundings, up to the Alpe di Siusi or Seceda. Whether training or relaxation, there is something for everyone!
Our balanced and well-trained westernhorses offer so much more than just riding. From vaulting to playful, therapeutic riding for children and young people with special needs and disabilities (including mobility impaired children) to ground work and horsemanship courses, horse-themed birthday parties, pony walks, professional photo shoots, colt starting and horse boarding (holidays with your own horse), there is something for everyone.
We take great pride in our approach to horse keeping, focused first and foremost on the well-being of our four-legged friends (Haflinger, American Quarter Horses, Appaloosa and Shetland ponies). To us, mindfulness, respect, and appreciation are simply a very important part of the horse world.
Our facility (an official ENGEA member) is only a 5-minute walk from the centre of Ortisei and has a 25x50m riding arena with a wonderful view of the Sella Massif, a round pen, bright 3.5x3m stalls, as well as spacious paddocks.
