Tour Details
Begin your journey at the serene beach near the quaint fishing village of Thorlákshöfn, where the salty breeze carries whispers of the sea. Mount your trusty steed and feel the gentle rhythm of hooves on the soft, black lava sand as you ride along the coastline. The landscape unfolds like a living painting, with the vast expanse of the ocean on one side and the rugged beauty of Iceland's terrain on the other.
As you approach the majestic confluence where the mighty Ölfusá River meets the sea, the air is filled with the sound of rushing water and the distant calls of seabirds. The tour takes you through the shallow waters at the river delta's edge, where the cool water splashes playfully against your horse's legs, adding a refreshing thrill to the ride.
The journey continues along the lush, green riverbanks, where the vibrant hues of nature contrast beautifully with the dark sands. Here, the landscape is alive with the fluttering of wings as various bird species make their presence known, offering a delightful spectacle for nature enthusiasts.
As you make your way back to the welcoming embrace of Vellir farm, the panoramic views—weather permitting—are nothing short of breathtaking. Whether the tour begins at the farm or ends at Thorlákshöfn, depending on the tides, each moment is a harmonious blend of adventure and tranquility, leaving you with memories of Iceland's untamed beauty etched in your heart.
