Experience the serene beauty of Iceland’s countryside on horseback, followed by a relaxing dip in the local pool of Hveragerdi town. This family-friendly tour offers the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to connect with the gentle and friendly Icelandic horse.

Your journey begins with a convenient morning pick-up from Reykjavik, where you’ll be transported to a picturesque stable just outside the charming town of Hveragerdi.

Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by your experienced guide, who will carefully select a horse that perfectly matches your riding abilities. The Icelandic horse is known for its calm and friendly nature, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and seasoned riders.

Before setting off, you’ll receive a brief introduction to the Icelandic horse, allowing you to feel comfortable and confident as you mount up.

Then, the real adventure begins as you ride through the stunning Icelandic countryside. For about an hour, you’ll journey through meadows and fields, surrounded by breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains and wide-open landscapes. The tranquil environment and the steady rhythm of your horse’s gait create a peaceful and immersive experience, allowing you to fully appreciate the natural beauty that surrounds you.

After your fun one-hour horse ride, it’s time to unwind in Hveragerdi’s geothermal swimming pool. Heated year-round by natural geothermal energy, the pool is perfect for easing any muscle tension after your ride. Whether you choose to soak in the hot tubs, swim a few leisurely laps in the pool, or relax in the steam sauna, this is the perfect way to complete your morning of adventure.

The geothermal waters, combined with the fresh Icelandic air, provide a unique and refreshing experience. Picture yourself sitting in the warm, steamy water, as a light snowfall turns the surrounding landscape into a winter wonderland.

After your relaxing time at the pool, you’ll enjoy a light lunch at a nearby restaurant, a delicious end to your morning of exploration. Once you’ve refueled, you’ll head to the vehicle for a comfortable drive back to Reykjavik, arriving in the city with plenty of time left in the day to continue your adventures.

This tour offers a perfect mix of outdoor exploration, interaction with Iceland’s unique horse breed, and relaxation in a geothermal pool. Check availability now by choosing a date.
