The head should be noble and lean, the size in harmony with the horse, with large forward-pointing eyes and wide nostrils.
The neck should be medium-long and slimmer towards the head.
A pronounced withers reaching well into the back, large diagonally lying shoulders, and sufficient depth of chest are the most striking distinguishing features of the forehand.
The hindquarters should have a long, slightly sloping but not too steep with a not too obviously divided well-muscled croup. The tail should not be set too low.
The Haflinger qualifies as a pony, standing just under 14 hands. It is sturdily built, with short, well-boned legs and "feathering" at the fetlocks.
Color may range from pale chestnut to dark liver chestnut with pale mane and tail.
