The new Haflinger book

Facts, stories and a long-distance Haflinger bridle path – the legacy connecting the different organizations in the breed's home lands

How has world history influenced the Haflinger breed? Why do Haflingers not only make good packhorses but also therapists, riding instructors and equine sports aces? What has shaped the character of the breed? What gives it its charm?

The Haflinger is not just one breed of horse among many; it is an integral part of the daily lives and culture of the people living in the European Region Tyrol-South Tyrol-Trentino. Twenty-three articles from the three provinces provide a fascinating insight into the history and everyday life of the horses and the people. Based on locations that are of special significance for the breed, a path is mapped out across the three provinces, which in the near future will actually connect them in the form of the Haflinger Long-distance Riding Trail.
