Trip difficulty: 2 out of 5 possible. Rated: Easy.

We start the day at Íshestar farm where we saddle up and go for an adventurous horse riding tour. We will explore the lava surrounding Mt. Helgafell volcano and ride through lava fields and across beautiful hillsides to the old Kaldársel sheep corral or to Lake Hvaleyrarvatn. As we ride through this magical scenery you will see different formations in the rough lava and you might even be able to spot a troll or two. All riding is on excellent riding paths with the beautiful Bláfjöll Mountains towering above on the horizon. After the horse riding we will have lunch at the horse center to get some energy for the ATV action that awaits us.

We will find our 650 cc CanAm Outlander max Quad bikes waiting outside our base in the outskirts of Mosfellsbær town. There we give you a short security talk and show you how the bikes function.We will start the ride on a gravel road along scenic lake Hafravatn before heading up a mountain trail to the top of Hafrafell. Once you stand there, you get to enjoy the great view over the whole Reykjavík area and the surrounding mountain range. Next we will head safely over to the top of Mt Úlfarsfell where the view over Reykjavik, the bay area and Reykjanes Peninsula is even more stunning. Driving these powerful machines is a great way to explore the hills and mountains on the outskirts of the city.

This tour combines the stoic horse riding with our powerful quad bikes, a sort of Beauty and the Beast combo!
