Description

Discover South Iceland from the saddle of the friendly Icelandic horse, riding through open countryside where volcanic earth, mountain views and fresh coastal air set the scene.

The smooth tölt, compact strength and calm character of this remarkable breed make the experience as distinctly Icelandic as the landscape itself. Clear organisation and expert guidance make it easy to relax into the experience and enjoy every memorable moment.

Short rests protect the horses and create natural photography stops. A lunch pause is made beside an old well, where the surrounding grassland provides a quiet place to sit before the return ride.
