We travel through the open countryside beneath Hekla, changing horses regularly and discovering their different characters and abilities as we ride together with the herd.

But not every ride needs to be with the herd. From our base at Minni-Vellir, we can also set out on individual horses to explore quieter trails and places less suited to travelling with a free-running herd. This combination brings variety to the riding and allows us to make the most of the surrounding landscape.

Between rides, there is time to discover the area Beyond the Saddle or simply enjoy life at Minni-Vellir. Each evening we return to the farmhouse, where a hot tub, good food and a relaxed atmosphere await.

Accommodation is 3 nights in a beautifully restored farm house owned and decorated by Magnús and Þorey. The house has 3 private rooms available upon request when booking and a cozy sleeping loft accommodating up to 14 people.
