Schleich Haflinger Stallion

Product Description

The home of the Haflingers is a small village in the high mountains of the South Tyrolean Alps. It used to be impossible to get to the mountain villages by car. There were usually only narrow paths that the farmers could only traverse on foot or with a surefooted horse like a Haflinger. Even on the most perilous mountain paths, Haflingers never put a foot wrong. That is why the farmers used them as draught horses to tow wagons or sleds carrying food & commodities. Nowadays, Haflingers are popular sport & leisure horses. Schleich manufacture amazingly wonderful accurate models of all sorts of animals, including this Haflinger Stallion model. All Schleich models are beautifully hand painted to give wonderful role play to children & also make a great collectors item for the nature enthusiast.
