Iceland Horseback riding - Lava tour
Riding the Icelandic Horse is a must when in Iceland. To ride the Icelandic horse in the beautiful nature of Iceland is an experience you will never forget.
Horseback riding in north Iceland
This horseback riding tour was nominated by the Sunday Times as one of the 10th best trails in the world.
The North of Iceland is known for its spectacular natural sights and diverse landscape. Our tour goes from Bjarnastaðir Farm near Húsavík to the Lake Mývatn area, famous for its volcanic features and rich birdlife. Ásbyrgi Canyon, Dettifoss, Europe’s largest waterfall, and the strange rock formations at Hljóðaklettar are just some of the gems of nature we´ll be seeing on this amazing horseback riding tour.
Viking tour with Íshestar riding tours
For experienced riders, it is hard to find a better way to experience the Icelandic horse in its natural surroundings. Ride at Heiðmörk nature park while trying the unique tölt riding style all within one day. Riding time is 4 1/2 – 5 hours.

Iceland Vlog: Day 4 (Hvalnes Lighthouse, Horse Riding & Neskaupstadalur Swimming Pool)
Welcome to Day 4 of our Iceland trip!
Day 4:
- We woke up early as we had a long drive to the Eastern Fjords.
- Had planned to stop at Stokksnes Mountain and Viking Town, but the weather was really windy and there was fog everywhere, so continued driving towards our horse riding tour.
- Stopped at Hvalnes Lighthouse on the way for a break and some photos of Eystrahorn Mountain, but still very windy and foggy.
- Arrived in Neskaupstadalur (a beautiful small town in the Eastern Fjords) and went to Skorrahestar Horse farm for our riding tour. It is actually located 5mins before arriving in the town. It was still a bit windy, but the fog had lifted and on the whole, it wasn´t too bad, and the other members of our tour cancelled, so we had a private ride, just us and Doddi, the owner and our guide.
The horse riding adventure was amazing, we had a great time and I would highly recommend visiting the Eastern Fjords and taking some time to ride these amazing animals, especially with Doddi and Skorrahestar Riding Tours, they also have accommodation.
- Ended the day off with a visit to the Neskaupstadalur swimming pool which was amazing, hot tubs at 39 degrees with a outside temperature of only 7degrees! Just what we needed after such a long day driving and with such bad weather!
- Camped in the same town, Neskaupstadalur
