Horse Trips

There is something completely rejuvenating about spending time on the back of an Icelandic horse, experiencing the effortless shift between the natural 5 gaits and enjoying a partnership unlike few other horse breeds. The Icelandic horse is gentle, yet strong and exceptionally foot sure.

 

The Icelandic horse as a breed dates back more than 1,000 years, way back to the times of the Vikings and has never been bred with other horse breeds. It is one of the oldest horse breeds in the world and we are happy to bring you a selection of shorter and longer rides for every experience level and interest.
