I really enjoyed my time here! It is definitely an experience for someone who wants to fully immerse themselves in the stable life and I truly loved it. I learned a lot and was able to practice riding as well which I really appreciated! The hours are 6:30am-4:30pm but you have a ~2 hour break and a ~3 hour break so the hours were respected. Your days off are completely up to you and you can walk to the bus station. Overall, it was exactly what I wanted and I gained a lot of experience from it. It will definitely help to know about horses beforehand :) Thank you so much Alison and Wolfgang!

This was my first worldpackers experience and it was a great one. Everything was as agreed upon and I felt welcomed by everyone. The region is beautiful and you have enough free time to explore Germany.

My experience at the stables was great ! Everyone was very welcoming and nice. Everything was explained clearly, the tasks were exactly as mentioned and I learnt a lot there. The horses were very easy to handle and the region is beautiful. I had a big bedroom to myself and all the facilities to cook. Thanks a lot for the experience !

My stay here was truly amazing! I had a wonderful time surrounded by beautiful horses and being in the company of real professionals in this sport. Not only did I have the opportunity to improve my riding skills, but I also learned so much about horses and experienced the inside of stable life. The working hours were acceptable, and I genuinely enjoyed helping out. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!☺️ 🐎 Having prior experience working with horses would help you! So if you have some, don't hesitate to sign in!
