Riding in the Wilderness

A pleasant ride destined for the abandoned farm of Kleif where we will take time to absorb the beautiful surroundings and have a look into the old farmhouse. Those who dare can try their hand at winching themselves across the Jökulsá river by a traditional cableway. Riding an Icelandic horse is something you have to experience at least once in your life. Traveling on horseback in the wilderness is for those who want a real feeling of exclusive freedom. We select each horse with riders’ enjoyment and safety in mind.
