A Week-Long Horse-Riding Holiday in Iceland
Home » Iceland » Iceland - A One Week Itinerary » A Week-Long Horse-Riding Holiday in IcelandSince one quite popular outdoor activity in Iceland is horseback riding, one quite popular Icelandic holiday (for residents and visitors) is on horseback. Iceland has two great advantages over other riding destinations – its horses and its scenery. The Icelandic horse is not only pure breeds but also a skilled animal; the landscapes are unforgettably beautiful – with waterfalls, glaciers, and mountains speckling the countryside.
Most tours of Iceland on horseback are designed for intermediate or very skilled riders. Usually, the package is for a tour of about a week or more, with long day treks through a variety of terrains. At night, comfortable accommodation is provided at hotels, cabins, and other types of lodging; and all of it is included in the original price of the trip (often around £1200 or more). Trips are usually offered in every season (though the summer months are the most popular), and Iceland takes on a completely different look in each time of the year.
Some examples of typical tours are –
1. A trip visiting Iceland’s most famous spots in natures – its countryside, waterfalls, canyons, geysers, and more.
2. A journey focusing on the beaches and lovely water across the country; enjoy riding along the shore.
3. An adventure exploring the incredible volcanoes as well as the lava formations, steam vents, and pseudo-craters that surround it.
