Frequently asked questions
What is an Icelandic Horse?
The Icelandic horse (or Islenski hesturinn, as it is known in its native country) is a unique breed of small horses that have been living in Iceland since the 9th century. They are hardy and strong, able to survive even the harshest Icelandic weather. Icelandic Horses are intelligent animals with a friendly, gentle temperament. These horses also have an extra gear - the “tölt” – which allows them to travel at up to 30 kilometers per hour without bouncing their riders around! The tölt gives Icelandic Horses superior speed and agility compared to other breeds – making them perfect for equestrian sports like racing, dressage and show jumping. In addition to their special gait, these unique creatures have thick double coats that protect them from cold temperatures and rough terrain all year round. Their manes are long and fluffy while their tails naturally curl which makes them look quite majestic! Icelandic Horses may be small but they pack a whole lot of personality into each one – so if you're looking for an intelligent companion who loves adventure as much as you do then this might just be the right breed for you!
