It's important to know
Important note: Please be aware that all your equestrian clothing and equipment which you bring to Iceland must be sanitised (otherwise your equipment might be confiscated at the airport). Iceland is an isolated country so our horses don´t have the same natural immune system as horses in other countries. For this reason you MUST NOT bring gloves, saddles, snaffles, wax jackets, shoes or boots for riding with you. We can provide all of this equipment for you. Please help us to keep our horses safe from a variety of illnesses.

- S Sarah14 Jun, 2023about providerThis was the highlight of our entire trip! Our guides, Ragnar and Mikey, were exceptional! They led us through some of the most breathtaking, mostly private, and untouched landscapes. We experienced a variety of terrains: rocky, soft and bumpy paths, lava fields, mud, sand, and roads. It was an incredible way to explore the peninsula. They also shared captivating historical stories about the area and Iceland, making the experience even richer. To make it even more special, my boyfriend had told Ragnar in advance about his plan to propose at a beautiful spot. They both made sure it was unforgettable! We rode to a stunning location near the base of volcanoes where my partner proposed, and Ragnar recorded the entire moment on video! Ragnar truly went above and beyond to make this moment magical.14 Jun, 2023
