The outposts of Kampl, Rheinthalerhof and Wilhelmhof

The Lipizzaner Stud Piber also manages the outposts of Kampl and Wilhelmhof in Köflach, and the Rheinthalerhof in Kainach.

The Kampl outpost is where the youngest Lipizzaners spend their childhood days until they reach sexual maturity at the age of one.

After that, the young Lipizzaners are separated by gender. The mares move to the Rheinthalerhof and the stallions to the Wilhelmhof. From there, the Lipizzaner stallions move to the Stubalm and the mares to the Brendlalm pastures, where they spend each summer for their first three years. They then finally return to the Kampl outpost / Lipizzaner Stud Piber for inspection at the age of almost four.

This is when the more serious side of life begins for our horses, so that they can be trained to become the legendary stallions of the Spanish Riding School or to become broodmares, riding horses or carriage horses at the Lipizzaner Stud Piber.
