Highlights

Embark on an unforgettable adventure through Iceland's lava fields astride an Icelandic horse. Experience the sheer natural beauty of the landscape as you canter cross-country under the expert guidance of a seasoned riding instructor. Delve into the volcanic terrains and windswept valleys, gaining insights into the local flora, fauna, and the unique ambling gait of the Icelandic horses known as the tolt. The picturesque vistas of vast volcanic panoramas, dramatic coastlines, and expansive glacial plains will leave you spellbound. Opt for a full-experience journey rather than a bus tour, and revel in the freedom of the Nordic breeze as you trot past scenic wonders on your trusty steed. Each horse is carefully matched to your skill level, ensuring a thrilling and unforgettable adventure for riders of all experience levels. Giddy-up and embrace the beauty of Iceland in the most exhilarating way possible!
