2013 Haflingertreffen Nordamerika Event
2013 Haflingertreffen Nordamerika Event
Hello
The 4th annual Haflinger Treffen Nordamerika will be held in the Bavarian village of Leavenworth, WA. Mark your calendars for June 20-23 2013. For those of you unfamiliar with Leavenworth, it is as close to authentic Bavaria as you can find on this continent. All structures in Leavenworth are modeled with a Bavarian motif and should make for some fantastic backdrops. In addition to all of the Bavarian shops and eateries, Leavenworth is surrounded by picturesque mountains with numerous mountain access roads to explore and enjoy the scenery. More information will follow.
I did some scouting on Memorial Day and posted this video:

Yes, Pinz's are welcome. At our 2011 Treffen we had a nice 712dk show up to travel the Redwood Forest with its older brothers'. Despite being the fat younger brother the 712dk got along fine .

I spent last weekend at a Snowcat Jamboree in Leavenworth, WA and talked to many local contacts and I am in the process of working a special group rate at Der Ritterhof for lodging and parking. Attendees of the Snowcat Jamoboree stayed there and we were happy with how it worked out. ( I think we had 12 rooms booked) Plenty of parking(for rigs and trailers) and very short walking distance to town center.

Re: 2013 Haflingertreffen Nordamerika Event
I have a block of rooms reserved under "Haflinger Treffen".
From the manager:
"The following is a quote for 3 nights stay for 10 or more rooms Arriving on June 20th and Departing on June 23rd.
Cost:
Standard Queen room with 1 bed: $84.00 per night (3 night min)
Standard Queen room with 2 bed $96.00 per night (3 night min)
*how our a group block works: We will set up a block under the group name for your group. The price will be set at the quoted price if you stay above the min. rooms. When a member of your group calls to make a reservation they just have to give the name of your group and we will make them a reservation using one of the rooms we have blocked for your group. 30 days before the event rooms that have not been used in block with be released.
We also have a restaurant that we can offer discount meal prices and provide a meeting space if needs.
In the summer we have a large BBQ pit that you can have a wonderful group gathering around, if you would like help planning a picnic, please let me know."
Those thinking of attending should book early. the Accordian Festival is going on the same weekend and this location is basically the only place with trailer parking close to town.

Re: 2013 Haflingertreffen Nordamerika Event
Accordian Festival Maybe we could combine efforts and give those little keyboards a lift. I think a haffy would be good for at least 2 dozen of those huffers! The parking area for their PT cruisers would be open and more rooms avail.. OK let me explain, 2 doz in a Haffy,just imagine how many will fit in a econo-room! therefore,more rooms!
Sorry guys,been stuck at the bottom of the forum a while..

Update
I spoke to the Der Ritterhof Inn and there are a couple rooms left under the Haflinger reservation. Their Inn is fully booked other than those held for our event. The rooms held under our reservation will be released to the general public in a week.
If you don't have a place to stay and plan on attending Call (509) 548-5845 for reservations.

Re: 2013 Haflingertreffen Nordamerika Event
Went to Leavenworth over the weekend to check how the rest of the winter treated the Der Ritterhof Inn and some of the surrounding forest service roads. Everything looked great.
The Inn is located about 0.2 miles from the core of the Bavarian village . A short drive through town on Haflinger friendly roads takes you to access the many surrounding forest service roads. Some of the roads take you to 5500+' level of the Cascade Range offering stunning views. I have identified many scenic loop routes and am excited to share them.
I can't wait to see everyone and their great trucks.
Send me a pm if you plan on attending.

Re: 2013 Haflingertreffen Nordamerika Event
Just a couple notes on the current plan.
Thursday: Many folks I have talked to are arriving at Der Ritterhof Motor Inn Afternoon through evening.
Friday: Trail Ride caravan departing Inn at 9:30am will parade through town and head out to the woods. Pack a lunch and snacks. I am planning on us having our sack lunch at the Sugarloaf Lookout tower. (See if you want a preview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIMCpYfPnSs). I expect to be back at the Inn around 4-5pm. Dinner can be on your own or impromptu group. There is an abundance of restaurants within walking distance of Inn.
Saturday: Less structured Trail Ride followed by option for Leavenworth town experience with accordions. Host dinner at Inn outdoor grill. I will be cooking Bratwurst.
Sunday: Group breakfast at Krystal's next to Inn.
If you have an FRS/GMRS radio bring it.
