Enjoy a picturesque horseback tour on the stunning black sand coasts of Vík, situated in Southern Iceland. \n \n Our Black Beach Horse Ride is a breezy, one-hour tour that is ideal for beginners or those who don’t ride often. However, we are certainly accommodating to all experience levels. Our horses are friendly and have excellent footing, making them ideal for traversing the harsh Icelandic terrain. Spot puffins soaring above in the summer, whilst the stark weather fluctuations during winter lend a unique character to the already beautifully rugged landscape. \n \n Tours primarily progress at a walk, but those who feel confident can attempt the tölt, the distinctive gait of Icelandic horses. \n \n Be advised, we impose a weight limit of 100kg/220lb, and ask that riders be at least 10 years old. Please ensure your arrival at the stable is 15 minutes prior to designated departure time.
