We drive to Stóra-Hof where we saddle up and prepare for the tour. We start in the paddock to get to know the horses and have basic riding instructions. Then we and the herd of loose horses will head off Northwards. We will be surrounded by magnificent views, with the volcano Hekla ahead of us and Eyjafjallajökull to our right. Our first riding day ends at the hut Foss, our home for the next three nights.

Accommodation: Mountain cottage Foss

Today we explore the area around our hut "Foss" further. We will go on two different rides, one in the morning and one in the afternoon and take only one horse on each ride. We leave the herd behind to venture into the beautiful landscape around Foss. We can enjoy amazing views over the mountains, lava fields, rivers and canyons. We will pass an abandoned farm and visit a man-made cave that used to be a sheepfold. We will ride up the hills south of Foss, where we will meet beautiful waterfalls, and enter a small cave called Thieves' Cave. If the sky is clear we’ll get a great view over the lowlands and the mountains.

On our way back to Reykjavik we will visit the famous waterfall Seljalandsfoss which you can walk behind and after a 2 hour drive we will return to Reykjavik around 1 pm.

After breakfast we say our goodbyes to the horses and drive back to Reykjavik.
