A few weeks ago the idea for a trip with our riding club popped up and we started planning and contacting breeders and riders close to Akureyri.
First stop was Syðra-Garðshorn, where we got a very warm welcome before showing us the traininghorses and facilities. Afterwards we were invited for coffee, cake and dried fish and Birna and her husband showed us a video about their breeding and told us a lot about their approach to breeding and working with horses.
Next stop was lunch at Akureyri before we went to Litli-Garður, where Stefán Birgir and his wife welcomed us. There we got an insight in their philosophy and a lot of delicious pancakes.
I think everybody was happy with the day.
