Take your horse on holiday

You can ride or drive your own horse along the picturesque forest trails and paths. A 280 kilometre horse and carriage trail runs through the municipality of Hässleholm, and allows you to safely travel as both rider and coachman. The Hovdala Nature Area has two trails of 8 km and 12 km (Hovslingan), offering fantastic opportunities for you and your horse.

Horseback tours on Icelandic horses?

At Brönne Islandshästar at Hovdala Nature Area and at Sparrarps Islandshästar in Farstorp you can book a horseback tour and get amazing nature experiences. At Idyllens Ponnyskola stables, children with no experience of riding can try riding ponies. You also have the opportunity to go on an exciting and slightly different kind of forest tour where all kinds of funny things appear along the way. Caring for the horses after the ride is also part of this horse-stable experience.

Lawn mowing in a traditional way

Parks and gardens are an important part in the cultural historical value of Hovdala castle, 7 km south of Hässleholm. Here you will get the feeling of peace, beauty and age. The lawn is mowed through traditional methods with help from a lawn mower pulled by horses. Maybe Sigvard is there cutting the grass when you arrive?
