Give yourself a rare treat - a relaxing ride on an Icelandic horse! These small, sturdy and good natured horses are ideal for experiencing the unique nature of Lapland. Whether a sunny winter day, when you can move effortlessly in the snow or a trip in the beginning of the summer, when the sun hardly goes down at all - nature will provide some exciting and unforgettable memories all year round.
We cater for beginners and experienced riders alike. Horses and trips will be matched according to riders abilities. No previous experience is necessary in short trips, except on children under 12 years. Maximum number of riders on one trip is 5-8.
During the wintertime from January to the end of April we can take you for a couple of hours or three hours tour trekking deep in the forests. If you choose the three hour trip, you will have a chance to stop in a traditional Lappish wigwam "kota" for a snack.
See >Winter programmes 2010
During the summer we offer you two hour trips, half-day and all-day tours to the fell area to enjoy the beautiful scenery. For more experienced riders we offer 3-5 days tours in northern Lapland during the autumn.
In all trips we lend you a riding helmet. During the winter time you will be provided with warm clothing (an overall, warm boots, woolen socks, winter riding gloves and a hat under the helmet) and during the summer with a raincoat and boots. >More information (FAQ)
We are located only about 10-15 minutes drive from the tourist centre of Ylläs, Äkäslompolo. See the >map.
