Top Iceland Horseback Riding

The ride was very fun, beautiful scenery! There was road traffic noise for part of it, but not terrible. The pickup came at 28 minutes past the time, which had us nervous, but the time on horseback was not cut short. The guides were friendly and helpful. The beginner herd did not tolt at all.

Absolutely wonderful experience! Fantastic guides and adorable majestic horses. Having the opportunity to ride the tölt was a once in a lifetime experience that I'm so grateful to have had. Greatly enjoyed chatting with the owner on the way back to my hotel. Highly recommend this well managed family farm!

I made the reservation months ago and realized the night before that I stupidly put in the wrong time! I messaged the stable and Anna got back to me so quickly about moving us to the earlier time and also getting us transportation from Akureyri to their barn. Crisis averted! Once we arrived we were taken into the barn and outfitted with any rain gear we may have needed. We were sized for our helmets and then Linnea paired us with our horses. Once we had a short time to make our horse's acquaintance (Hi Narfi!), we mounted up, and we were off! One of my friends and I are experience riders, so we were given the opportunity to go ahead of the group and try to tölt. It was really quite the experience! The was another group with us, but it still was a nice private experience where each rider was taken care of depending on their level of horsemanship. It truly was a beautiful hour and a half of picturesque countryside and opportunity to commune with nature. My entire group felt comfortable and safe the entire time and would not hesitate to come back. Plus, the cake at the end was wonderful as well!
