Meet the Icelandic horse — a sturdy, friendly and remarkably sure-footed breed brought by the Vikings over a thousand years ago. Our horse riding tours let you explore Iceland’s countryside, lava fields, beaches and river valleys from the saddle, often experiencing the breed’s unique gait, the smooth ‘tölt’.
Tours welcome everyone from absolute beginners to experienced riders, with calm, well-trained horses, helmets and instruction provided. It’s a peaceful, authentic way to connect with both Icelandic nature and a beloved part of the country’s heritage.
