Highland Ride South Iceland 2025
In the realm of the volcano Hekla
66 days riding with a small group (10-12 participants) 6 days / 6 nights
Arrival August 14 (fully booked)
This year we are organising a ride to the very familiar area around the impressive volcano Hekla. The varied landscape in the South Icelandic highlands, the Thjórsárdalur valley and on the banks of the glacier river Thjórsá is one of our favourite areas. The tour is used with Dúna organised by Húsatóftir Farm. For 30 years she has been offering highland rides under the name of Land og Hestar and we have often worked with her. We charge 2-3 horses per rider and will therefore have a herd of free-roaming horses with us to swap along the way. An unforgettable experience!
Arrival days: August 14 (Pick up from bus terminal BSI in Reykjavík at 6 pm)
Departure days: August 20 In the evening or the next day with an extra night in Reykjavik. Estimated arrival in Reykjavik on the last evening is approx. 18-19 hrs.
Please inform us about your arrival time!
