Haflinger and Noriker breeding in South Tyrol has never been more up-and-coming than in 2022! And anniversary shows in particular can provide a fascinating glimpse of just how passionately breeders will prepare their horses in order to present them in traditional grooming and plenty of style. 

Anniversary events are usually characterised by a very special atmosphere — and regardless of whether you're attending one in Val Passiria/Passeier, Castelrotto/Kastelruth or Dobbiaco/Toblach: The younger and the most experienced generations of breeders will line up side by side and work together to put on a great show. 

 

Typically, local breeding associations play an active role in their village or town community, which will in turn happily engage with any horse-themed activities and events organised at their doorstep. Plus, all over South Tyrol, Haflinger breeding is steeped in tradition: Many families pass it down from generation to generation, each time adding a new chapter filled with passion to an already long line of commitment. For some, on the other hand, the joys of Haflinger breeding are a wholly new discovery — but certainly no less captivating. So whenever South Tyrolean Haflingers take the stage, prepare to witness authentic, flourishing culture. A perfect recipe for the future!
