"On horseback" or as we like to say at Hotel GUT Trattlerhof****Superior "the happiness of the earth lies on the back of horses". This was the motto when the riding stable was built at the GUTshof. Equestrian sports and the love of horses have always had a special significance at the Trattlerhof and are reflected in the over 370-year history of its existence.

The four ponies Nanook, Nagona, Elegance and Shakira look forward to lots of grooming & cuddling and love to romp around the spacious course together with visitors and farm guests. Visits to the pony farm are possible daily on request between 10.00 and 17.00 (May to October, and December to Easter - dates according to website & notice board, advance booking requested).

The GUTshof promises holiday experiences of a special kind. One such experience is undoubtedly the atmospheric torchlight hike, during which you stroll together with our horses through the twilight of the holiday idyll Bad Kleinkirchheim. Accompanied by the glow of the twinkling stars, the warming crackle of the torches, the lush green grass under your feet and the good-naturedness of our farm horses, you hike through the valley of the Carinthian Nockberge mountains in a completely new, peaceful way. The hike is rounded off with a campfire at the Trattlers Einkehr hut restaurant.
