Venture into the heart of southern Iceland, where the rugged beauty of the landscape unfolds between majestic mountains and the vast sea. Your journey begins with a thrilling ride along the serene GljĂşfurĂĄ River, its waters whispering tales of ancient times as you make your way to the expansive banks of the ĂlfusĂĄ River. Here, the horizon is dominated by the awe-inspiring silhouettes of the legendary volcanoes Hekla and EyjafjallajĂśkull, their snow-capped peaks piercing the sky, visible only when the weather grants its favor.
As you ride, the crisp Icelandic air fills your lungs, invigorating your spirit. The rhythmic sound of hooves on the earth becomes a soothing melody, harmonizing with the gentle rustle of leaves and the distant call of native birds. A well-deserved lunch break offers a moment to savor the tranquility and absorb the breathtaking views before you continue your adventure.
The path leads you towards the towering presence of Mt. Reykjafjall, where lush pastures stretch out, dotted with grazing sheep and horses, their presence a testament to the harmony between man and nature. As the day draws to a close, the promise of warmth and comfort awaits back at the farm, where the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingles with the sweet scent of home-baked cake, offering a delightful end to your journey.
In the winter months, the adventure takes a cozy turn with a stop at a welcoming hotel, where a steaming bowl of the soup of the day provides a comforting pause before you continue your ride. This tour is crafted for riders of all levels, ensuring everyone finds their perfect match in a horse, whether you're a novice or a seasoned equestrian.
