South Africa - Gauteng - The South African Lipizzaners

The South African Lipizzaners are located just North of Kyalami/Johannesburg.
Towards the end of the second World War a few Lipizzaners were brought to South Africa from Austria.
They are the only performing Lipizzaners outside Vienna recognized by the Spanish Riding School. In the show you will see the School Quadrille, Work on the long reins and Airs-Above-The-Ground amongst other things.
After the show you can visit the stallions in the stables.
