All about the trip
We begin the day by driving to Eldhestar riding center located just outside Hveragerði. Once we've arrived at the horse stables we will have a quick safety briefing. Don't worry if you haven't any horse riding experience, this tour is perfect for novices and experts; all riding is on excellent riding paths. The Icelandic horse is a unique breed, known for its sturdiness and easy temperament, and has gained a legion of fans around the world. The ride lets you take in some of the local sights on horseback, and ends with a light lunch at the farm Vellir.
From there we continue our journey to Geysir geothermal area, where the erupting geyser Strokkur is the star of the show. We also visit the spectacular Gullfoss waterfall (Golden Falls) and Thingvellir National Park, with its amazing geology and history.
This is the ultimate tour for horse and nature lovers!
