Southern Comfort riding tour with hotel accommodation

​

We make this tour with our great partners and tour operator Exploring Iceland.

​

This tour combines a proper riding tour with 5 riding days of 18 to 30 km rides along lovely routes in splendid green countryside with comfort hotel accommodation. During the ride we enjoy marvelous views of the volcano Hekla and the glaciers Langjökull and Eyjafjallajökull. We ride into the uninhabited wilderness north of the romantic valley Tungufellsdalur and follow the mighty salmon river Stóra-Laxá sided by fantastic basalt collums on wonderful tölting tracks.

 

Accommodation is offered in double/twin or single rooms with private sh/wc at the cozy Icelandair Hotel Fludir. Its fine restaurant, which uses only locally sourced, mainly organic produce and meats and relaxing bar are the perfect places to spend your evenings. Within minutes, you can be soaking in a hot tub in the beautiful hotel garden underneath the midnight sun during summer or the Northern lights in autumn.

 

The Hotel is situated in walking distance to the natural hot springs of the Secret Lagoon. The lagoon´s natural setting and steam rising into the air gives the place a magical feeling. The warm water holds 38-40 Celsius all year. In the lagoon´s surroundings there are several geothermal springs and a little Geysir which erupts every 5 minutes, showing off for the guests relaxing in the hot spring.

 

Lots of activities such a River Rafting or a thrilling ride on the the river jet can be arranged from the hotel doors.

 

Join our team and our wonderful well trained soft tölting horses with great temperament.
