We wanted to get up close with the gorgeous Icelandic horse and be able to see some of the area around Borgarnes.
We were kitted up with helmets and then provided with our horses. After a brief walk around the arena, we headed off.
Antonia was very considerate of the skill level of the three participants, always keeping an eye out for us.
The area around Hestalands is beautiful. A few little creeks, beautiful lupine and snow capped mountains.
The horses are beautiful. The range in coats is obvious and so interesting.
We got to walk, trot and tölt (unique gait to Icelandic horses).
A wonderful experience!

Just had an amazing ride with Laura and Rosalie in the snow. The ladies were super professional and friendly. The ponies are clearly looked after and in top condition and the whole place was well run. A lot of attention was given to making sure that I was comfortable before we went out and the ladies checked frequently that I was having a good time, which I really was. I have done a lot of trekking over the years and this experience has to be one of the best. You will have missed out if you are in the area and don’t give it a go.

The horses are great and are selected by the competent team based on the riding skills of each person. We stayed in one of the very stylishly furnished and well-equipped cabins and were treated to delicious home-made meals in the evening. We want to come back as soon as possible!

I didn't had enough time to ride a horse but I was able to take many photos of them and at the reception seems very nice.

I went riding with a group friends last summer and stayed at Hestalands lodge. The friendly and professional staff made it easy for us to have an unforgettable riding adventure, we were all at different levels from beginners to experiences riders. Since then I have developed even more adoration for horses. Thank you Hestaland.

I have used both the cabin & the guesthouse in different trips. The cabin has spectacular views & works well for a small group. Some of the rooms of the guesthouse have just been remodeled. Everything is clean. Common areas are practical, but comfortable. Food on organized trips is excellent.
Ideal location for trips in the area, only 15 minutes outside of Borgarnes, on a working horse training station - so option to go riding as well!

I was at Hestaland with a group of experienced Icelandic horse riders for a 6 day trek. They communicated with us on what to pack, helpful hints, and kept us informed on covid protocol leading up to the trip and while there. This was a huge relief since I haven’t traveled for the past year, have never done a trek, and was unsure what to expect. They handled everything and arranged our Covid testing as well as transportation. They could not have made it more convenient and stress-free. This level of service permeated every aspect of my stay at Hestaland, and our adventures off property.
Now, the trek itself was the most amazing experience I’ve ever had. Filled with breathtaking views and incredible horses to ride. Words truly cannot do it justice! My face hurt from smiling so much, and brain basically glitched out with the deluge of happy hormones. It’s unreal to travel in a herd across such a beautiful country. I’ve been riding horses for almost as long as I’ve been walking, and riding Icelandics for a year, but nothing compares. It’s definitely a physically demanding trip, that being said, there are plenty of breaks for people and horses alike. They are very accommodating and conscientious if you need to call it quits for the day, you are more than welcome to do so while the rest of the group treks onward. They made sure everyone was comfortable and paired with appropriate horses. We were given clear instruction on what to expect and our roles on the trek. Provided with quality equipment to ride in, which is so important when you are spending 6+ hours a day in the saddle!
I’ve made my a career in the culinary arts and unfortunately have food allergies, which is always a major concern when traveling abroad. The chef was so understanding and communicative I was immediately put at ease. All dietary restrictions were well accommodated in the group and every meal masterfully crafted. I am absolutely, a food snob, so exceeding my expectations is not easily done. After a long day of riding, coming back to the gorgeous homebase at Hestaland knowing a delicious meal, tasty wine, and a hot tub was waiting for us was a perfect way to end the day. The rooms were cozy, clean, and comfortable, and the property itself is breathtaking. I cannot recommend Hestaland enough. Whether you intend to just stay a night, and enjoy the accommodations and trail rides on the expansive property, or go for the full trek experience you won’t be disappointed.

I traveled to Iceland from the UK in October and so was subject to the local test and quarantine requirements. I spent my quarantine and 6 subsequent days at Hestaland. It was the perfect getaway for me, during the initial quarantine you are not allowed to drive anywhere or see anyone, but they stocked my cabin with the food I had requested and I could walk along the roads and trails and had excellent wifi for zoom pilates sessions, movies, etc. And a wonderful, relaxing view off the deck. Once I was cleared, I took riding lessons in the arena in the morning and rode out with a guide in the afternoon and still managed to also drive out and explore some in between. The horses wee great, the riding good and even the weather quite good. The cabin was super cozy and had everything I needed to cook and cater for myself. I highly recommend it for anyone who just wants to get out and ride and breathe a little after this hard year!
