Why it's on Icebreaker
Viking Horses
Iceland shut the door on foreign horses early, so the animals here are close to what the settlers rode, which is the premise behind Viking Horses. The family-run stable is in Almannadalur, a quiet valley on the edge of Reykjavík about 20 minutes' drive from Harpa, and hotel pick-up is included. Groups are capped at eight riders. After a short lesson you head into the Hólmsheiði hills and out to the red pseudocraters of Rauðhólar, with the city in the background and a few chances to tölt. The weather tends to join in, so rain gear is supplied. Expect an hour to ninety minutes in the saddle, then coffee, tea or hot cocoa at the stable. Morning and afternoon rides, plus an evening one in summer.
From the Icebreaker app, curated with The Reykjavík Grapevine.
