White Turf Family Days 2022 in St. Moritz on Feb 11
Feb 11, 2023 @ 11:00 AM - 3:30 PM
Last year's White Turf Family Days event was a big success. Lots of families flocked to Lake St. Moritz. Let's hope for perfect conditions for a day on the frozen lake!
As such, the festival space on the frozen Lake St. Moritz will be welcoming families and children. On the first three Saturdays of February, there will be no admission fee to get in. This presents an ideal opportunity for anyone who has been wanting to feel the vibes of White Turf.
Did someone say pony races?!?
With the aim of attracting a new generation to equine sports, White Turf is hosting a number of events with a low barrier of entry. From skijoring trials with a mounted horse to pony races, there are various ways for children to get involved.
Registrations are accepted in the information tent on the lake. Keep in mind that for skijoring, you will need to bring your own ski gear: skis, ski boots, helmet, and back armor.
For children who simply want to be around equines without actually competing, the festival offers pony rides. Meanwhile, the adults will appreciate the delicious meals at the food stalls, meanwhile watching the races unfold on the frozen lake.
