Meet The Ponies: Remember those cute ponies from Parc Malou? They’ve moved here. You can visit them on Saturdays and Sundays (10:00-17:30) and Wednesdays (from 15:00). Just ring up in advance at 📞 0474/55.63.93 to make sure they’re around.
Pro Tips:
- Got some carrots or apples? The ponies would love a treat!
- Approximate rates for pony rides:
- 30 min = EUR 15
- 40 min = EUR 20
- 60 min = EUR 25
- Safety first! Bring your bike helmet or they’ll provide a riding one.
- Parking’s a breeze with spots available on the street. And, for those moments, there are toilets at Woudpoort.
This place isn’t just about nature and animals; it’s about the lovely people behind it all. The family running this venture has been doing so for 30 years. They’re truly welcoming, especially the kind-hearted lady managing the ponies.
