Lipica Stud Farm is the home of one of the world’s most famous breed of horses, the Lippizaner. Founded by Archduke Charles of Austria in 1580, the farm has continuously bred the sturdy white horses for over four centuries and some of the best perform at the Spanish Riding School in Vienna. As well as watching the horses perform at the Classical Riding School at Lipica, visitors can take the reins of a thoroughbred Lippizaner themselves and there are pony rides for children. Other activities on offer include horse-drawn carriage rides, tennis, cycling, and walking among the lime groves and oak forests. It is also possible to spend an entire holiday on and around the stud farm; the two on-site hotels provide swimming pools, a fitness centre, sauna, casino and nightclub.
