Ferienwohnung „Pferdeheimat" – where the snorting of the horses wakes you

Horse-farm apartment in Gnadenwald · 2–3 people · 1 bedroom · large terrace · dog welcome

📍 Austria · Tirol · Naturpark Karwendel · Gnadenwald · 🏔️ High plateau above the Inntal

Your four-legged neighbours greet you anew every day and make your holiday in Tirol an unforgettable experience. Your dog quickly finds friends here too and can romp about to its heart's content in the spacious garden. The holiday apartment „Pferdeheimat" lies at the new horse farm of Jasmin in Gnadenwald, in the middle of the Naturpark Karwendel, high above the Inntal.

Your day begins with a smile: the gentle snorting of the horses wakes you gently in your separate bedroom. While you prepare your first coffee in the open kitchen-living room with its cosy seating corner, curious horses' heads look over the fence. Far more interesting than the TV is the lively spectacle in front of your large terrace.

The farm's inhabitants become your daily companions: chickens come by for breakfast, rabbits scurry through the garden, and the horses become your favourite photo models. During the riding lessons you get to know your four-legged friends even better, and with parental guidance children experience magical walks out on horses and ponies.

Summer and winter – the Karwendel outside the door

Summer adventures such as hiking and mountain biking alternate with winter pleasures such as downhill skiing, cross-country skiing and snowshoe hiking . The cross-country trail starts right at the horse farm – after a few steps you are on the groomed trail. The ski areas Kolsassberg, Kellerjoch, Glungezer can be reached within 8–15 km. In summer, hikes start straight from the farm – trails through the Karwendel meadows, to the Hinterhornalm, to the Fallbach waterfall.

After eventful days you relax in the bathroom with shower and WC. The kitchen-living room is open and equipped with a cosy seating corner – ideal for shared evenings or a quiet breakfast with a view of the horses.

Larger groups can rent additional holiday apartments at the same farm – the „Alpenfamilienglück" for 4–5 people or the „Waldsicht" for 2–3 people – and still enjoy their privacy.

Here you are more than just a guest – you are part of the Pferdeheimat in the Karwendel.

Where the snorting of the horses wakes you more gently than any alarm clock.
