The experience

About this tour

Make a pit-stop at Hestasport and come along for a short ride towards the waterfall Reykjafoss on horseback. Enjoy the fantastic scenery of the mountain panorama of Skagafjörður and watch the water rushing down the steps into the canyon Brandgil. Take some beautiful pictures between the ears of your furry companion that will bring you safely on the edge of the steep canyon and you will bring home some memorable expressions from Iceland.
