This trip takes place through some of the most varied terrain you'll find anywhere in the world. The Snæfellsnes peninsula has often been called little Iceland due to its ever-changing landscape being able to offer almost everything the rest of the country has. On this trip we will ride Icelandic horses from the southwestern corner all the way to Snæfellsnes northeastern coast. You'll witness an awe-inspiring glacier, ride on multiple beaches and through ancient lava fields, on top of spectacularly tall and beautiful ocean cliffs, over waterfalls and rivers, across fields of green and rugged mountain passes, and through an ocean of lupine flowers and rough rocky terrain. On this trip we will ride both slow and fast as the terrain changes dramatically each day. For the first four days of the trip we travel along Snafellsnes southern coast, where we will spend a part of each day on beaches. These beaches form some of the world's greatest riding terrain as their sand, which is high in clay content, is arguably the perfect ground for riding on. There we can ride for hours on the famous smooth gait Tölt and the horses can really show their worth running free without any obstacles to slow them down. The fifth day is spent traversing across a long mountain pass all the way to the north side of the peninsula and on the sixth and final day, we take the time to ride around the area of Helgafellssveit.
