VFS

VFS Südtirol, the Association of Leisure Riders, Drivers and Pack-Horse Enthusiasts of South Tyrol, brings together people who enjoy horses and outdoor activities. The organisation focuses on recreational riding, carriage driving and trekking with pack animals, and offers education and courses for members and other horse enthusiasts. Its programme includes training through ARPO, as well as activities for children under Kids Reiten.

Members can access information about discounts and other benefits, while the organisation shares updates and details about its philosophy, statutes, history and relationship with the VFD umbrella association.
