The Icelandic Horse is certainly a unique horse breed – bred exclusively and naturally, isolated in the far North Atlantic.
Bred in a country where the air is pure and landscape magnificent, raised in a wild herd in wide open paces, learning to be courageous, respectful and independent.
The horse is a favorite among Icelanders and can be seen in art and literature all through Iceland’s history. It has been purebred for a thousand years, treated with respect and dignity and raised to the highest level by systematic and ambitious breeding. It holds a special place in the mind of the nation.

The Icelandic Horse is intelligent, good-tempered, versatile and beautiful. It is the most colorful breed in the world, with over 40 different colors and over 100 variations. Unlike any other breed, it masters five gaits, among them the magical smooth tölt. It is strong and enthusiastic, forward-going and docile.
It is virtually unknown for a horse born in Iceland to bite or kick and such horses are never used for breeding. The Icelandic Horse is also self-assured; acts well in traffic and is a quick learner. It is truly a horse for everyone, with generations of people enjoying it together. It is suitable for leisure activities
and pleasure riding as well as top level competition.
