Apparently there was a selfie theme on this year’s trip to Iceland, and that theme was “selfies with cute animals while wearing this one sweater”

Horse spotlight of the day: Icelandic horse!⠀ ⠀ The Icelandic horse is a small to medium sized horse, descending from horses imported by original Scandinavian settlers of Iceland. Both the climate and terrain of Iceland are very harsh, resulting in an excessively sturdy and unique horse breed with a typical feisty, but friendly temperament.

Tumblr’s tagging is such a valuable social media tool, because it offers an…indoor voice. A way to talk on content without throwing a rock through the creator’s window.

It is spring in Iceland and the perfect time to go for a horse ride to enjoy the beautiful Icelandic landscape. We recently went to visit our friends and project partner from @islenskihesturinn - The Icelandic Horse, and joined them on their amazing Volcanic Landscape tour. The company is owned and run by Begga Rist and her husband Sveinn Atli, and all their tours begin with a visit to "Begga's Riding School". This gives both experienced and inexperienced riders alike a great understanding of what it means to ride the horses of Iceland and how to get the most out of the trip. And importantly, it enables almost everyone to experience the amazing tölt. They place large emphasis on quality, sustainability and equality - both for horses and people. As a result, the staff has a driving passion for horses as well as the Icelandic nature, an all the guides operating the tours are educated guides. During our Volcanic Landscape tour, we were amazed by riding through the beautiful geothermal landscape - but the highlight of the tour was experiencing Begga's passion for the Icelandic Horse and how this positively influenced the entire group. #Horsesoficeland (at Reykjavík, Iceland)

From total trepidation to surrendering myself to the liquid life power of 🐴 - I’ve decided horses must be a part of my life from now on! From them, I’ve learned that it’s so important to community your energy and capacity. And when you do, it’s a magical interspecies interaction that becomes a lesson for how to move through life with all human beings, and most importantly, yourself. . Thanks @tubormar for making this happen. Hour 22 of 24 in Reykjavik #triciainiceland @islenskihesturinn thank you for such a great intro to horse riding.

@icelandichorsepower @islenskihesturinn here it is!! It’s a bridle from Karlslund! I did detach the noseband from the bridle itself because it got too close to Frelsi’s eyes for my taste. But it’s perfffff now 😍

Frelsi’s new bridle arrived yesterday!! So today I quickly popped on a bit and after my morning ride with Mysla, I tried it on her. First time for her to wear a bridle and a bit so I’m really proud! She was pretty nonplussed about it, but she was very confused about why eating hay was suddenly so much more difficult haha. So quickly off again, lots of treats en freedom to eat all the hay she wanted

[icelandichorsepower]

Was it not one of you who had this super beautiful brown bridle? @equinesandeducation @islenskihesturinn I thiiink I remember Frelsi maybe wearing it in some picture with a water bucket or sth but I'm not 100% sure😁 and I just really need to know where I can find it😍

@islenskihesturinn in response to your tags about how the bottle suggests to use a dime sized amount:

The smallest coin is a dime 😛

What do y’all use (other than MTG I hate that shit) to un-mat forelocks with sticks and burrs in it??

Hi friends,

Sometimes I write feature length articles for an Icelandic horse magazine published by the United States Icelandic Horse Congress. Earlier this year I wrote a really cool piece on alternative hoofcare that included case studies and great scientific data. In the forthcoming issue, I’ll have a big article on Gait separation training that brings in learning theory, clicker training, biomechanics and classical dressage. I have a couple of other cool pieces planned for later in the year as well. If you’d like to read these articles and support the USIHC, all you have to do is become a USIHC member. It’s $45 to join for a year and if you join, you get a FREE Worldfengur subscription (ask @islenskihesturinn about what a good deal that is!!) and the magazine will come to your house each quarter - but even better than that, you get immediate access to ALL previous issues of the magazine to read online, at no extra cost. That’s a TON of educational material as well as access to all my older articles (and some of the ones I wrote as a teen are pretty cringeworthy). You don’t have to own or even ride icelandic horses to become a member, just being a fan is enough and maybe it will inspire you or help you connect with other icelandic horse enthusiasts if you join!
