Tour Details
Set off on an enchanting journey through the heart of Iceland's breathtaking landscapes, where the gentle rhythm of hooves on soft trails guides you through a tapestry of lush meadows and majestic mountains. Your adventure begins at the charming farm Vellir, where the air is crisp and filled with the earthy scent of the countryside. As you mount your trusty Icelandic horse, a sense of anticipation fills the air, promising a day of exploration and discovery.
The trail meanders alongside the serene river Gljufura, its waters whispering tales of ancient times as you ride. The path then leads you onto an age-old route, a passage once traveled by the first Norwegian Viking settler, Ingolfur Arnarson, as you approach the imposing Ingolfsfjall Mountain. Here, history and nature intertwine, offering a glimpse into Iceland's storied past.
As you ride along the slopes of Reykjafjall Mountain, the landscape unfolds in a breathtaking panorama. The ocean stretches out in the distance, a shimmering expanse that meets the volcanic mountains encircling the quaint village of Hveragerdi. The views are nothing short of spectacular, each turn revealing a new facet of Iceland's rugged beauty.
Throughout the journey, the unique Icelandic horse, known for its smooth tĂślt gait, ensures a comfortable ride for all, whether you're a seasoned rider or a beginner. The camaraderie among riders, the shared laughter, and the stories exchanged create a bond that enhances the experience. Safety is paramount, and while the thrill of galloping is reserved for another day, the joy of tĂślting through this stunning landscape is unparalleled.
As the day draws to a close, you return to the welcoming embrace of the farm, your heart full of the day's adventures and the unforgettable beauty of Iceland's meadows and mountains. This is more than a ride; it's a journey into the soul of Iceland, where nature and history come alive in a symphony of sights and sounds.
