Eldhestar has healthy and motivated horses for beginners and advanced riders, great guides, a charming management and an excellent organisation. The area is very diverse and exciting, geothermal fields in abundance, mountains, valleys, fields, rivers to cross on horseback and beach to tölt along! The hotel is relaxing and welcoming and has two hot tubs.

Anna, a lovely woman working in the adjacent hotel, accompanied us on the tour and she was so friendly! The views were beautiful and the ride was so comfortable, we went through a river on the horses which was amazing and we even got to canter!
