Ari

Steinunn

Picture

Lóa

These three guides will be on your tour. One day when they realised they had too many horses they decided to use their horses for horseback riding tours, since that is what they love to do. They use all their own horses on their tour since they know them by heart and like to have things more personal.

Ari started riding horses at a young age with his father. He is very helpful and is always there for the riders. Ari is hardworking and likes to have things in order. You will often see him in the front of the line because he always knows the right way. His favorite horses are those who are cooperative to run after the loose herd.

Steinunn bought her first horse at the age of 16. By now she owns 14 horses and some of her younger horses come from her own breeding lines. She likes horses with a character, with good tölt and good temperament.

Lóa is Steinunn’s daughter. She started riding when she was 5 years old and has been riding ever since.She bought her own horse when she was only 11 years old. She is the competi- tion rider in the team but also loves to go on horseriding trips which she has been doing since the age of 10. Her favorite horses are the ones that can pace fast!

During the wintertime these three are seen riding together in the stable and training their horses for the summer.
