The Icelandic horse is famous for its smooth gait and friendly nature. These horses are small, strong, and sure-footed, which makes them ideal for Iceland’s rugged trails. Beginners and experts alike enjoy riding them. Young riders also find them safe and easy to handle. A trek on these horses is not just a ride—it’s an authentic Icelandic experience.
At Laxnes Farm, we provide all the basic gear. You will receive helmets, boots, and rain gear. In winter, we offer warm snowsuits. Before the ride, guides ask about your riding level and choose a horse to match your skills. This personal touch ensures comfort and safety.
Riding an Icelandic horse is more than an activity—it is part of local culture. You explore stunning countryside and connect with a tradition that Icelanders have valued for centuries. The memories will last long after the ride ends.
