Dogs are welcome at the stud farm, whether it’s on an independent visit or on a guided tour!

However, please note: In the inner area of the stud farm, dogs must always be kept on a short lead. Dogs are not permitted at events held on stud grounds (e. g. the Spring Celebration) or on alpine pasture tours!
