Countess Kálnoky’s Horses

Like many other businesses we are deeply affected by the Corona virus pandemic. Riding holidays are on hold and we are facing a problem which we fear is bigger than we can handle.

Our 32 horses have lost their “jobs” but they still need to be fed, to be looked after, to be trained. They are most valued colleagues and we dread the idea of ultimately having to sell them or not to be able to provide the care they deserve. They are our partners, some born at our stables, others have been with us for more than ten years, we have grown together, we learnt together the ins and outs of the riding holiday business always keeping the welfare of our horses as a priority. This is not different now.

That is why we are looking for out of the box solutions to make ends meet. We were advised by our great friends to believe in the power of community of riders who have participated at our riding holidays, horsemen, enthusiasts who share our passion, riders who could not come to this year’s holidays but would like to show their support. Therefore we are turning to You!

Your contribution can make the difference between closing down or staying afloat and providing great riding holidays in 2021. We aim to present the local culture, give a possibility for riders worldwide to experience riding through the wide open spaces, rolling hills of Transylvania.

You can show your support by helping us out in these trying times. Donations can be deducted from your next booking with us.

A general donation can be made to all the horses or you can choose which horse you would like to send your support to. Choose from the pictures above or tell us in the comment section which horse you had been riding in the past.
