The Haflinger is truly America's family horse. The beauty
and charm of the Haflinger have been known to capture a part of your heart
forever. The specialty of the Haflinger lies in its unique
golden chestnut coloring with the long flowing white mane and tail. But more
unique is the people-loving, willing and forgiving temperament that was
established over centuries of living alongside and working with the mountain
peasants, and serving all purposes for all family members. Haflingers very simply became part of the family.
Haflingers are very hearty horses with a solid conformation and substantial
bone. They have a wonderful disposition and are very willing to work. They are
easy keepers that are resistant to disease and easy to acclimate.

driving, western, trail riding, endurance riding, draft work, and
therapeutic riding programs. Haflingers hold their own in competition with
other breeds, often showing surprising athleticism and strength for their
size. The Haflinger continues to capture and enrich lives as it has for over
two centuries.
