Give yourself a short vacation on horseback in the mountains. We ride Icelandic horses two days out on the basis of Nikkaluokta and our farm in Puoltsa in the valley and up in the mountains with a breathtaking view of Kebnekaise. We ride both on paths, small roads and in pathless terrain so we can vary the tempo of the riding. We stop during the tours to cook lunch over an open fire. You stay in a house on our horse farm in Puoltsa and eat local specialties.
You arrive at our farm in Puoltsa in the morning on the first day and then we will prepare the horses and take us on a day trip where we stop to eat lunch. We ride up on the bare mountain where we have a fantastic view over the river and the mountains. When we come back we have a dinner of local specialties. The night is spent in a double room in a house on our farm. The next day after breakfast we go to Nikkaluokta by car for another great day of riding. Also, on this day we eat lunch out, but come back a little earlier so you have time for the trip home. Maybe we do the tours in the opposite order.
This tour is suitable for both experienced and less experienced riders. The Icelandic horse is certainly strong, but not so large, so the maximum weight of the rider is 90 kg and the minimum age is 18. You can come to Nikkaluokta/Puoltsa by bus or car.
Sometimes we have this tour in Ratekjokk, a place we have in a roadless area and we take you there by car and boat.
