About the horses: The Icelandic Horse is as pure as a breed can be. The first horses came with the first settlers to Iceland 1000 years ago and a rule was set which prohibited the further import of horses. The Icelandic Horse has the size of a pony but the power of a horse. The Icelandics have a good character with a strong personality, much temperament when asked for it and the two rare gaits of Tolt and Pace. All our horses tolt.
