Halldór, Elín and their wonderful staff are known for offering guests the chance to witness the most incredible sights in North East Iceland. Halldór, or Dóri as he is called, is often called the mountain man of the North. He owns many sheep which he herds back from the northern highlands every autumn – and guests can join him.

Guðmundur Hólm and family

Guðmundur Hólm · Kaldbakur, Hruni – South Iceland

Guðmundur began riding as a child with his grandparents and soon took part in courses and competitions. His passion evolved from competition to long riding tours, and later he started working as a tour operator and has never looked back. He still takes part in sheep round-ups in the highlands and says there’s nothing better than being out in the wilderness on a good horse, surrounded by good company.
