Stable and training ground

The training facilities encompasses 60 acres of undulating land sheltered by mixed beech forestry parties and hillsides with juniper, typical for this area. Both youngsters and older horses enjoy working out on the 2 200 m training track taking them to the beautiful view on top of the ridge Knivsåsen (the knife rigde). Normally an exercise starts with a lap on this track. A nice trot uphill and a good walk downhill before the actual work starts on the outdoor schooling paddock or riding hall get both horses and riders in the right mood for training. For the same reason a trot after a schooling session gives the horses motivation for next days’ training.

The young horses do most of their build up work on the training track to gain strength and balance before they take on exercise to educate them as jumpers. In this way the young horses are kept happy and full of motivation, preparing them and laying the foundation to physically and mentally sustain the long education to the highest level.
