Welcome to the KHA

The Keystone Haflinger Association is a social organization for people who want to share their common interest in promoting the Haflinger breed. Throughout the year we sponsor family outings, clinics, trail rides, pleasure rides/drives, and an annual wagon train. Look for our booth at the Horse Expo in February (Harrisburg), Keystone International Livestock Expo (KILE) in October (Harrisburg), county fairs, and various other locations where we can showcase these amazing animals.

Haflinger horses are easily recognized by their signature, flaxen mane and tail flowing over their golden chestnut coat. They are referred to as "America's Family Horse," and are known and loved most for their personality and gentle disposition. They love being with and working with people. Through selective breeding for performance, their athleticism and temperament make them well suited not only for draft work (a common misconception) but also packing and trail riding, competition in combined driving (CDE), pleasure driving and light harness. Their trainability and eagerness to please make them perfect for ridden and driven dressage, vaulting and jumping, cross country, Western and English pleasure, Western reining and team penning. They excel as therapeutic riding horses and all-around family horses.
