Riding holidays in Filzmoos with 8 horses and dwarf pony Nelly

Cross-country up hill and down dale

On our small farm in Filzmoos, surrounded by green nature, between flowering meadows and forests, 9 horses are waiting for enthusiastic riders. The stable is located directly on our hotel grounds and is also within easy reach for the parents, should the children lose time while cleaning and grooming the horses.

In addition to the furry four-legged friends, Geli is the secret star at the riding stable. She is a passionate horsewoman herself and has turned her passion into a profession. And she also loves spending time with the kids. This ensures the kids have an unforgettable time with Geli and her loving horses.

More than just horse riding...

Geli enjoys it when there are hard-working helpers, who help her from Monday to Friday with the grooming, combing and saddling-up - after all 9 horses mean a lot of work.

Our riding program from Monday to Friday

Children aged 3 and up can take part in our riding program. For our guests up to and including the age of 15, riding is free of charge.

Beginners ride for approximately 20 minutes. The horses are led if needed.
Lightly advanced but confident riders can join the “Small Rides” (from age 8). These last about 30 minutes and go through open terrain at walk and trot.
The “Large Rides” are for confident riders (from age 10) and last about 50 minutes, including canter.

Children under the age of 16 must make a short ride before their first ride out to familiarise themselves with the horses and to assess their abilities.

We ask for your understanding that rides may be cancelled depending on the weather.

1x weekly horse wellness day

Together with Geli, the horses are thoroughly pampered once a week, they truly deserve it. The horses are groomed, their manes and tails are braided, their hooves are painted, and much more…

For children aged 7 and up!

First and foremost, our WASTL

WASTL here, WASTL there – you have probably noticed that WASTL is a recurring term for us here at Neubergerhof. But why? This is simply explained:

WASTL is the head horse in the herd and the namesake of our kid’s club and also our mascot on the farm. And, of course, there's a story behind it.

WASTL and his story

One of our regular guests from Germany had a son named Sebastian. When 9-year-old Sebastian from Recklinghausen came here again on holiday with his family, a foal was born in our stable. Sebastian was the lucky one who was allowed to name the young Noriker. And he called it WASTL, the Bavarian-Austrian variation of the name of Sebastian.

Correctly named - Wastl von Waldprinz.

And our WASTL kid’s club has been in existence since 1996. 20 years of many laughing kids, who now come back to the Neubergerhof and to the WASTL with their own kids.

Prices for riders aged 16 and up:

Circuit on the lead (approx. 20 minutes) for beginners € 10.00
Small ride (approx. 30 minutes) for slightly advanced, saddle-safe riders € 25.00
Big ride (approx. 50 minutes) for fully saddle-safe riders € 35.00
