Experience the robust and tölting Icelandic horse - no matter your previous riding experience. Tryggvi Islandshestgård offers guided tours on Icelandic horses with different levels of experience, and the trails and speeds are adjusted to each level.
They have offers for both adults and children, beginners and experienced riders. During the summer season, you can often book longer trips, while the rest of the year, you can book 1-3 hour riding trips. Moreover, Tryggvi also offers intensive courses, children's riding, riding school and other horse-related activities.
The rider's weight cannot exceed 85 kg. At Tryggvi Icelandic Horse Farm, (almost) everyone can ride – from around 3 years old to 80! The tour guides at the farm have extensive experience with Icelandic horses and gait riding and are very familiar with the horses.
Riding tours must be booked in advance via the website. The Icelandic horse farm organises riding tours on most weekdays during the school summer holidays and otherwise on weekends and school holidays throughout the rest of the year.
