HORSE RIDING AT MIDNIGHT IN ICELAND...

Welcome back to my new travel series! This time I'm on another adventure to the mystical lands of Iceland. In this first part, I am thrown into the deep end, facing an awe-inspiring Viking ritual that must be completed before I can ride.
As the midnight sun graces the skies, we set out on an extraordinary midnight ride. We set out to find the Viking Compass which is located on one of the oldest riding trails in Iceland. Crossing rivers and the lupin fields, it really was an amazing ride.
Don't miss out on this next part of the journey-subscribe to my channel and stay tuned for more exciting parts of our Iceland travel series.

    A horse named after a purple flower, you with purple socks, riding through a purple flower field. Just after a sacred cleansing ritual, on sacred ground, visiting a saved site. I spontaneously wept with love 🥰 I send my love to Mr Iceland & tell him, one day I will come too!! ❤

    gonna do a little double comment here. Iceland once again looks absolutely magical! I’d absolutely love to go there, but I’m not really a rider anymore - used to do wester riding as a kid and went on a riding safari last April in Afrika and noticed that it’s absolutely not like riding a bike 😂😂😂 maybe also because western saddle are so absolutely different but galloping was absolutely scary 😂. Does Mr. Iceland also take beginner riders? Are there any group travel options? Since I’m usually travelling alone I’m always interested in meeting new people abroad ❤ Sorry you might not know the answers, but anyways, engagement is good 😂

I made some lifelong friends and have a couple of people I could put you in touch with who organise expeditions/adventure tourism trips there. It’s an insane and awesome country, so diverse, steeped in equestrian tradition. In one trip you can ride horses, reindeer, camel and even fly eagles off a horse. If you want to do it, plan sooner rather than later as Chinese mining is eating the place up.
