Start by thinking about how the Hobby Horse will be used: for play, training or competition. Each size differs in weight, handling and proportions. Age and height help with the choice, but intended use and comfortable handling can matter even more.

Hobby Horse Aurora is a beautiful bay dun mare and the kind of horse everyone would love to have at home. She is easygoing, affectionate, and forms a strong bond with the whole family. She offers a smooth ride and, with regular training, can even take part in competitions. Aurora is very talented and quick to learn, and when you braid her softly highlighted mane, you and Aurora will turn heads wherever you go.

03Our story
From a bedsheet horse to a family brand
The first LarDen horse was sewn by our daughter Lara during lockdown, from a bedsheet she found at home. What began at the kitchen table has grown into a family workshop, our own store and a tournament where hundreds of young riders meet every year.

I bought this hobby horse with two other products from the company and it came in one box with easy opening. Inside were three plastic packages and also a horse passport in German, English and Czech language, manual, flyer about company and sticker. Because of this nice package there is a small chance to damage the product during delivery. The wood stick is easy to get together with the head of a horse. It has a black bridle in really great quality. On touch is so soft. The mane is dense, amazing for making braids. I think it is a product with high quality.
Leider keine persönliche Erfahrung, da es ein Geschenk ist. Verarbeitung sieht allerdings sehr hochwertig aus, Bestellung und Lieferung einfach und völlig problemlos.
Aurora in Größe S, wie ich sie bestellt habe, ist sehr leicht und liegt richtig gut in der Hand. Dadurch lassen sich auch höhere Sprünge (über 95 cm) gut mit ihr springen.
Ihren dicken, langen Schopf allerdings habe ich etwas eingekürzt, da er mir persönlich etwas zu lang war.
My daughter, 12, is a big hobby horse fan but struggled to find one the right weight and balance for jumping higher jumps. She absolutely loved this one. Excellent quality,lovely finish, delivery fast. Thank you!
Tolles Hobby Horse. Sieht genau so aus, wie beschrieben.Klare Kaufempfehlung 👍 👍Es gab nur bei der Zustellung Probleme.GLS hat sich darum gekümmert.Hobby Horse ist da und alles Gut. Top 👍
Ich muss sagen das die Pferde wirklich teuer sind, aber dafür wir der Service bei diesen Händler groß geschrieben. Ich habe bei diesen Händler ein Pferd bestellt, und es wurde auch super schnell geliefert, aber leider war es nach einen Tag schon defekt, und ich habe kontakt mit dem Händler aufgenommen, und habe ohne mit der Wimper zu zucken binne 2 Tage ein neues im haus gehabt, und das ist das was einen guten Händler ausmacht.Weiter so!!Danke
We got exactly what we ordered!! Amazing quality! Shipping was surprisingly fast to Missouri, USA! My 10 yo is SO happy & had been tracking the package since it shipped! High quality & totally worth the price!!
