If you see horses running loose on the Prater Hauptallee, this should cause alarm. Equally alarming is the pony ride at the Wurstelprater where they are maltreated for the enjoyment of children and their parents looking for “live” entertainment. But if you don’t agree with animal torture or you just prefer to ride horses than be dragged around by them, head over to Reitstall Freudenau.

Gallop through the park or on their courses. And if you are any bit nervous, they offer classes as well. Giddy up!
