The best riding stables in northern Germany with accommodation

Northern Germany is home to some of the most beautiful landscapes for a riding holiday – above all the Lüneburg Heath. If you are looking for a riding stable here that combines professional riding with comfortable accommodation, you will sooner or later find your way to Heinshof in Egestorf.

Why the Lüneburg Heath is ideal for riding holidays

• Expansive, low-traffic riding and walking trails through heathland, forest and meadows
• No mass tourism – quiet tracks, wide skies
• Stable sandy terrain – good for horses and riders alike
• Beautiful in all four seasons – especially the heather bloom in August and September

Heinshof: riding holidays with standards since 1540

Heinshof is no ordinary riding stable. Founded as a cow farm in 1540 – a listed Lower Saxon heritage farmstead – it has been developed by co-owner and head trainer Linda Naeve-Haht into a standard that is rare in northern Germany:

• Top-class school horses for all levels
• Riding lessons in small groups – dressage, show jumping, trail riding
• Active horse breeding and sport horses for sale
• 8 luxury holiday apartments directly on the estate (Moritz, Quinn, Cossma, La Jolie, Max, Caretina, Robiani, Clausi)
