Horse back riding


Icelandic horses are a national passion. When the Vikings came over from Norway in the 9th century, they brought with them a group of short, stocky, thick-maned horses and soon banned further horse importation. More than one thousand years later, the breed seen running wild in the countryside is still pure. Riding these horses is particularly kind on the rear end: Icelandic horses have a unique gait called a tölt that's much smoother than the usual bumpy trot. Sure-footed and handsome, Icelandic horses have been the preferred mode of transportation for centuries. Experience the Icelandic horse and some of Iceland's gems of nature the same way the Vikings did. The Icelandic horse is a friendly, willing and docile animal that rarely gives his rider any kind of trouble.
