Trainingstage im IENA
Wir waren für 3Tage im Reitsportzentrum IENA in Avenches, dafür top Lage. Ist in 5min Autofahrt erreichbar. Frühstück gab es auf Wunsch bereits ab 7.00Uhr. Etwas knapp mit Parkplätzen.

Instalaciones limpias y bien cuidadas. Nos hubiera gustado disponer de horario más amplio para el uso de instalaciones como el comedor para la cena.
