Horseback riding

scroll for happiness

Forsthofgut riding stables

The Forsthofgut is always on the lookout for new specialties. This time we have been inspired by the search for "happiness on earth" - which, according to the German saying, can be found on the back of horses. That is why a riding stable with an indoor riding arena is a new part of the Naturhotel Forsthofgut.

Riding happiness at the Forsthofgut

Grown out of a former forestry business, we feel a very special responsibility for the environment in our nature hotel. We want to strengthen this even more with the riding stable: For us, riding is a unique connection between man and nature. We want to awaken the joy of riding and offer a very special experience. From guided tours of the stables to creative workshops, from campfire evenings to romantic carriage rides, extraordinary experiences await families and nature lovers.

OPENING HOURS

Monday - Saturday
08.00 am - 12.00 am
15.00 pm - 18.00 pm

Nature paradise

Mountain panorama, green and rich meadows, fresh air and lots of outdoor space - this is the natural paradise for our horses. Our horses live together as a community in the riding stables with paddock access, exercise whenever they want and hay as much as they want. 

RIDING LOUNGE

This meeting place is very popular with riding enthusiasts: The riding lounge is inspired by British country style and is wonderfully cosy with soft lounge chairs from Home Interior and selected highquality materials. The open fireplace creates a really cosy atmosphere in the riding lounge – and so it is possible to simply relax in the lounge next to the riding stable, philosophise deeply about your favourite sport and your favourite animals or read a good book while the fire crackles peacefully.

MOMENTS OF HAPPINESS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY

In addition to a riding offer with special experiences, there will also be a new expanded offer for children & youth. We want to give creativity even more freedom and are moving the nature workshop and the painting studio from the hotel to the upper floor of the riding stables. Young people will also find a new challenge on the second floor: a varied indoor obstacle course with time measurement. In the spacious play area on the upper floor of the riding stables, young and old alike will find plenty of space for special moments of happiness.

  • 100m² new extended offer for children & youth
  • Indoor obstacle course with timing
  • new creative workshop for young & old guests

  • colourful variety of colours

Good to know

For our youngest children, riding is allowed from the age of 2 years accompanied by their parents. For the older rascals, riding lessons are possible from the age of 6 (without parents).

Perfect equipment is also part of a perfect riding experience. Therefore, we ask all riding enthusiasts to come with sturdy shoes and long trousers. We recommend that you bring your own equipment (if available). For personal protection, wearing a helmet while riding is compulsory. Helmet and waistcoat can be rented on-site.

In addition to our horses, we are also home to numerous four-legged friends at the Reithof. Alpacas, dwarf sheep, rabbits, a donkey and much more await young and old to cuddle all year round.

In order to fulfil your riding happiness, we recommend that you book your desired units in advance. We kindly ask you to arrive at the riding stables 15 minutes before your lesson.

The horses are saddled and prepared for the lesson by the riding instructors as well as by the guests (depending on their knowledge). Our riding instructors are on hand to provide support.

Together with a Forsthofgut riding instructor you take the ponies for a walk in nature. A walk alone is not possible.

Arrive & be happy. 


When you ride a horse, you borrow a little piece of freedom.
