From the horse-drawn railroad to whisky - riding with history and taste
The starting point for this trail riding tour is the Reitherberge Wurm-Manzenreiter in Freistadt.
The route leads along a historic section of the former horse-drawn railway line
- a trail full of memories of times gone by, embedded in the charming hilly landscape of the Mühlviertel. Between Hirschbach and Trosselsdorf, picturesque Steinbloß farms line the route - typical Mühlviertel farmhouses with their striking granite façades,
that tell stories from centuries ago. Afterwards, enjoy the ride along the Gusen in the Gusen Valley nature reserve. The destination of the tour is a special highlight for connoisseurs: the whisky distillery Erlebnis- & Genusswelt Affenzeller in Alberndorf, where regional craftsmanship and fine wines come together. This tour combines cultural
heritage with a culinary experience - a journey for all the senses in the saddle.
A tip for return transport would be Horner Transport, which specializes in horse and cattle transport. You can find more information HERE.
