Pony rides at the Kinderhotel Waldhof

Our lovable pony Eidfaxy simply can't wait for you to visit him during your holiday at the Waldhof in Grossarl, where he can show you around the beautiful surroundings.

Eidfaxy lives like we do at the Waldhof in Grossarl. The Icelandic pony, just as the name suggests, originates from Iceland. The weather conditions in the north of the island are usually very stormy, which is why he has a thick coat to protect him against the wind and weather. Even the cold wind during the winter months in Grossarl cannot do him any harm.

We also offer you the chance to ride our horses Susi & Wuschel.

Weatherproof riding experience

Horse riding in all weathers and seasons

If you want to go riding on your holiday, then the Waldhof is a paradise both in summer and in winter.

We offer pony rides with Eidfaxy, Susi and Wuschel together with the Waldhof childminders 3 times a week during the summer, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, within the framework of our child care programme.
The little cowboys and cowgirls have the opportunity to enjoy a few rounds of riding in the covered riding arena twice a week during winter.
Our covered riding arena ensures that nothing stands in the way of riding bliss when the weather is bad.

New addition to the waldhof

Our Alpacas

Timon, Pumbaa, Tom and Jerry, our cuddly alpacas are still very young. We are currently still training them to be able to join us at the Advent Market in winter. They join us on the hikes to the alpine pastures in summer. They live with our ponies and look forward to receiving visits from the children. They also love being petted (just not on the head) and so far they haven't spat at anyone.

Our small animal zoo

Goats, marmots & Co.

There's plenty of animal fun in store for our younger guests at the Waldhof! Because there are lots of little furry noses around here just waiting for visitors.

Max and Moritz, our cheeky goats, are already looking forward to going for a walk
Sissy and Franz, our shrewd marmots, are eagerly waiting to be fed
Our cat Chester and the bunnies love being petted
Our chickens are always clucking and look forward to seeing many visitors
