An Iconic Ride in South Iceland!

Ride one of our Icelandic horses across rivers and open fields before reaching Reynisfjara, Iceland’s world-famous Black Sand Beach. Although the farm is located near Hvolsvöllur, many guests join as an easy day trip from Reykjavík, arriving early to make the most of the ride. This tour highlights the best of South Iceland’s dramatic coastline and horses well-suited to beach terrain. Along the way, you’ll enjoy sweeping views of glaciers, mountains, and waterfalls, a panorama that changes with every step of your horse. On clear days, we may even glimpse the Westman Islands offshore or catch sight of the mighty Skógafoss cascading in the distance. The combination of dramatic landscapes and the smooth tölt gait of the Icelandic horse makes this journey both comfortable and thrilling, whether you are a first-time rider or an experienced horse lover. This is more than just a tour, it’s a true South Iceland adventure: authentic, unforgettable, and deeply connected to the land, the horses, and the people who call this place home.

Please note: this tour depends on the water level in the Holtsós river. If the river is too high to cross safely, we will adjust the route to an equally scenic alternative.
