Horseback Riding Northern lights and horses

Pick up from BSI around 6 p, and drive to Kalfholl farm. The staff and the tour guide will be introduced. In the evening we have dinner together and afterward, you can enjoy the hot tub. If there are no clouds in the sky, you already have the chance to see the first Northern Lights.

In the morning, after a hearty breakfast, you will meet your guide who will introduce you to the Icelandic horses and their special gaits. Discover Icelandic winter riding in a relaxed atmosphere by the river Thjorsa, which is the longest river in Iceland. Afterwards, head to the Secret Lagoon. Relax in the warm geothermal water. In the evening, you will have dinner together at the Blesastadir guesthouse and go for an evening walk to look out for the Northern Lights.

We start our ride into the day along wintry landscapes until lunch. We ride across many pastures where we can observe our own horses. Back at the farm, we have a hearty dinner. In the evening, the hot pot and the possibility of watching the Northern Lights beckon. Overnight stay at Kalfholl Farm.

Today we are going to ride one last time. After lunch, say goodbye to the horses and hop on the bus to visit the Golden Circle: the three most impressive natural sights in South Iceland. The Golden Circle consists of the Geysir geothermal area, the golden waterfall Gullfoss, and Thingvellir National Park. Geysir is a geothermal area with boiling mud pits and the living geyser Strokkur, which spews water 50-65 feet into the air every few minutes. At Gullfoss, you have the opportunity to see the mighty waterfall. You will then drive to Thingvellir National Park, where you can experience geological phenomena. Thingvellir has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2004 due to its geological uniqueness and historical significance. Arrival in Reykjavík at approx. 6 pm.

It's time to say goodbye. After breakfast, the bus returns to Reykjavík. Approximate arrival: 12:30 pm.
