Horse Riding for Teens & Adults

For experienced riders, our well-trained school horses and qualified riding instructors offer the best conditions to further improve your skills – even on a riding holiday for adults.

Whether in high-quality group lessons (maximum of 4 riders per group), in private lessons or in jumping lessons – riding lessons at Darrehof are also a real enrichment for ambitious, advanced riders.

And to unwind, experienced riders can enjoy the wonderful Tyrolean mountain scenery from the saddle on a trail ride.

It is a great joy and confirmation for us that, in recent years, more and more adults have also been taking advantage of our riding programme.

These are primarily people who have always wanted to ride and are now starting together with their children. Or people who rode when they were children or teenagers and would like to reconnect with their previous riding experience.

We are especially pleased to give these guests a good and safe feeling in the saddle during an adult riding holiday in Serfaus – with the help of our kind, gentle Haflingers. It’s never too late to start riding – that’s why Darrehof, as a riding hotel in Austria, is perfect for your plans!

Leave everyday life behind and immerse yourself in the world of horses – combine awareness and movement. Here at our riding hotel in Tyrol, you’ll find a place where it’s not about performance, but simply about relaxing and letting your mind wander. Horses don’t know deadlines or time pressure.

If a muscle twinges after a riding lesson, our sauna area or the indoor pool of our riding hotel in Serfaus, Tyrol will help you recover in no time.

In their “non-riding” time, our teens can enjoy a fantastic and varied leisure programme in the Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis region, such as a high ropes course, summer toboggan run, the Serfauser Sauser and much more.

Not only your mind, but also your body benefits from a healthy contrast to office life. Horse riding trains core stability, balance and posture.

By alternately tensing and relaxing the back and abdominal muscles, these are stimulated both passively and actively. It’s no coincidence that riding is also often used in physiotherapy and occupational therapy.

As the horse moves, the rider’s body must constantly balance this movement. Correct aids involve the whole body. Coordination of arms, legs and core is essential. Even facial muscles are involved – and don’t forget: smile, riding is fun!
