Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

Icelandic horse riding starts from the horse farm. Before departure, there will be a professional guide who will provide you with professional horse riding equipment. Next, you will experience a 1.5-2 hour riding trip in the picturesque countryside, and you can also enjoy the volcanic landforms and pasture scenery along the way. This is a good opportunity to get close to good animals. Whether you have riding experience or not, our professional guide will choose the horse that suits you. Warm tips: It is recommended that you wear comfortable sports shoes and gloves.
The most famous geyser is the Geyser, which means "exploding spring" in Icelandic. Its highest water spray height is the highest among all fountains and geysers in Iceland, making it one of the world's famous geysers. You can see the entire eruption process from the vent, especially before the eruption, when the boiling water sprays out to form a bowl shape, and then the water column in the middle turns into steam and rises about 20 meters into the air.
Next to it is the Strokkur geyser, which sprays two or three times every eight minutes or so. The water column is as high as twenty meters, which is very spectacular.
Gullfoss is one of the must-see attractions in Iceland, and it has a reason to be so. The river rushes down from a height of 32 meters, divided into two levels, the upper level has a drop of 11 meters, the lower level has a drop of 21 meters, and is more than 100 meters wide. From a distance, it looks like two rainbows, rushing along the Great Rift Valley. The scene is very spectacular. The water is turbulent and looks golden, hence the name.
Thingvellir National Park is located near Reykjavik. It is known as the "world's oldest democratic parliament site". Later, it became a place for Icelandic people to celebrate major events. The national park is close to the Icelandic Great Rift Valley, which is the boundary between the Eurasian and American plates. In 2004, Thingvellir National Park was listed as a "World Heritage List" by UNESCO.
