Give me 5

The Icelandic Horse is the only horse breed in the world that has these 5 different gaits: Walk,trot, gallop, tölt and pace. If you are an experienced rider or even a real expert, come to us and let our amazing horses cast a spell on you!
A highly skilled riding teacher will lead you into this unique equestrian world. By riding 2-3 different horses you will soon discover the particular potential of the 5-gaited Icelandic Horse.
This program takes place at Vindheimamelar show grounds and surroundings and is a good balance of practice and hacking.
Please let us know about your previous riding experience in as much detail as possible. This helps us choose the right horses for you. You can do this on the check out page.
