It's the International Day of the Icelandic Horse! 🇮🇸

In celebration of this wonderful breed, here are three mind-blowing facts about them...

1. They're the only breed of horse found in Iceland – No outside horses are allowed into the country and once a horse leaves, they can never return. This means there's almost no disease amongst the horses and vaccines aren't needed.

2. There are over 100 colour combinations – Some of the most common include chestnut, black and bay, and one of the rarest is the colour-changing roan.

3. They have long life spans – Icelandic horses often stay in work long into their 20s, plus an Icelandic mare from Denmark lived to be 57 years old!

Want to experience this amazing breed for yourself? Our hosts Hestasport - Activity Tours have some amazing experiences on offer through Cavago!

Every day there are several riding activities to choose from, including jumping, dressage, vaulting, cross-country, mounted games, Icelandic riding, long-reining, natural horsemanship and more. For the more goal-oriented riders, there's even the possibility to pass the internationally-renowned French “Galop” exams (levels 1-7).
