Galsi Horse Rental has its resident just outside Blonduos, in North West side of Iceland. We offer horse back riding tours in the sorroundings of Blonduos. The trips are for all ages, for advanced riders and beginners.
On my sister and my trip to Iceland (both in our 50's) we both made a list of the top things each of us wanted to do. The top of my list was ride an Icelandic horse. While it was low on my sister's list because she hasn't ridden on many horses ever, she agreed to go along. I picked Galsi because of the great reviews and what seemed like the best value...I didn't go wrong!! It was excellent. The horses were very well trained and you could tell very well cared for. Our guide Karen was amazing!! I had done a fair amount of riding before, but only in a Western saddle and my sister had only ride a handful of times in her life. Karen managed to accommodate both of our needs and expectations and was just a joy to be with. She let us through pastures, up and down some hills, and over to scenic bluffs overlooking the city and the ocean. Upon leaving we were also greeted by the owner who wanted to make sure we were satisfied and thanked us for coming. I would definitely recommend taking the ride to Blonduos to ride Icelandic horses. The drive is beautiful, away from the city of Reykjavik and the people and horses at Galsi are amazing!

Kalfshamarsvik is a small cove in the northern part of Skagi, with unusual, beautifully formed sea cliffs of columnar rock, created about 2 million years ago. At the beginning of the 20th century, fishing boats plied the waters and there was a small community of about 100 inhabitants at Kalfshamarsvik. However, by around 1940 the village had become deserted.

We did a fantastic horse ride with Antonia for 2 hours. We were a group of no to little experienced riders. Nevertheless we felt very comfortable and secure throughout the ride due to the good guidance we got. It took probably a lot of effort to keep an eye on us, but we also did have a nice chat and were taught some basics of riding. The ride itself was through a wonderful landscape with fields and rivers, which we crossed. Totally recommendable!
