The major star of this huge event, which attracts about 400 horses from 18 nations each year, is the American Quarter Horse. In Kreuth, they prove their unique versatility and great mind in various disciplines – from halter to western pleasure and from reining to cutting. Nowhere in Europe will you find such a huge number of top qualitiy American Quarter Horses in so many different disciplines. The European Championship truly celebrates America’s Horse. There are two go-rounds plus a final for the European Champion titles, with the exception of the halter and cattle classes. These will only have the go-rounds and no finals.
