Short description
The Icelandic horse is a breed that
has remained virtually unchanged since the Vikings brought it to Iceland in the
9th century. Enjoy a riding tour in the idyllic landscape of Laxnes, located
just out of Reykjavik city. The riding tour is suitable for all ages and
experience levels, from beginner to expert.
After the riding experience
and a short break we head to the National Park Þingvellir, with its remarkable
geological features. The Icelandic Parliament - Alþingi - was founded on the
site in 930 AD., making it the oldest still-functioning parliament in the
world.
We visit the impressive glacial waterfall Gullfoss and the
geothermal area around Geysir and Strokkur with its spouting geysers. The tour
takes us through fertile agricultural areas and we visit Hveragerdi village with
its numerous greenhouses, before heading back to Reykjavik over the mountain
heath Hellisheiði.
Please note: This tour is not
recommended for children under the age of 6.
