Piber Lipizzaner stud farm

The Piber Stud is one of the most significant cultural attractions in Styria and is inextricably linked to the history of the Spanish Riding School. Since 1920, the famous Lipizzaner stallions that later impress with their elegance and precision in Vienna have been bred here. The focus is on the foal experiences, where the youngest Lipizzaners can be observed in their natural environment. The closeness to the animals, their playful behavior in the pastures, and the peaceful atmosphere make these moments particularly impressive. Specially designed children's tours convey knowledge about horse breeding in an illustrative way and provide a playful approach to this centuries-old tradition.

The riding training also offers exciting insights into the development of the young horses. The gentle training shows how foals grow into those elegant stallions that later shape the Spanish Riding School. The experience is complemented by carriage rides that lead through the gentle landscape around Piber and reveal views of nature and the stud at a relaxed pace.

For additional variety, the climbing park provides a combination of physical activity and nature experiences and is a particularly attractive addition for families. The Café-Restaurant Piber offers the opportunity to enjoy regional cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere and to reflect on the impressions of the day.

The Piber Stud impressively combines tradition, nature, and experience. A visit offers deep insights into the world of Lipizzaners and makes the cultural significance of this unique place in the Graz Region particularly palpable.
