Enjoying movement! The Steigerwald credo not only applies to True Horese Agility and Training equipment. Even the most ingenious training programs for my horses could not compensate for a lack in quality of daily life.
During winter the five horses live on an area of roughly 1 hectare. We constantly enhance and improve the area in order to help our horses to enjoy their lives to the full.
During summer the Steigerwald.Trail includes 1.1 km of varied trails round the whole compound. . The horses need to walk quite a distance between their water supply, different feeding places, shelters, mineral licking stones and branches to nibble. The ground varies from very soft (sand) to medium soft (rubber mats, various types of paddock mats, forest floor with intertwining roots) to very hard (stone, concrete and pebbles). We equipped our horses with GPS trackers, which registered an impressive 10 km per day.
On the Steigerwald.Trail the horses can choose between a small copse for shelter from weather and insects, two airy stables with natural compost floors and one stone stable as part of the original farm house. Enjoy a visit to the trail with Joost Harenborgs beautiful video tour.
