The summer is here! The 1th of May three beautiful foals were born. Then the fourth one was born the 15th of May. They are doing really well and are playing around in the fields.

Lambs are born

Our first guests came in April, it was wonderful welcoming them. We welcomed one couple that came to us for their honeymoon. We road with them along side the river and visited a cave where Stefnir plaid the harmonica for them.
We have been working with the young horses all winter but now they get a break and are outside grazing. We will meet them again in June and start again riding them then. They did so well this winter so we are really looking forward starting again riding them in June.
Now we are looking after our sheep that are having their lambs in May. Already 5 lambs are born and a lot more coming.

The young horses are being adorable. All of them have been outside with a rider on. They are behaving really well, like a dream. We are looking forward having them with us in the riding tours next summer.

The Hekluhestar family has 14 young horses inside for the moment that we are working with. They are doing a fantastic job and we are hoping that some of them will be ready to work with us next summer in the riding tours.

Winter has arrived and there is snow all around. The sheep are inside and the horses have their winter hair on. It is cosy time at the Hekluhestar farm.

The horses are in the fields happy grazing and all the sheep are home sound and save. The Hekluhestar family is now planning the riding tours for 2012. We will offer the 6 and the 8 days, also the summer night rides. People are also always welcome to contact us with special request.

Sheep round up

The sheep round up was last week and yesterday the farmers were collecting their sheep. It was really a nice day, people and sheep are happy.

The horse riding tours are finished this year but we are already looking forward to next year. We have a good feeling about it. Now we are going to start to train the young horses and that is always fun.

Last riding tour

The eight day ride from the 1th of August to the 8th of August was great! The atmosphere was fantastic and there was a lot of joy.

Now the last riding tour of the season is starting, a 6 day ride. It is sad that the season is almost finished, we met so many wonderful people, the weather was good and the horses did a great job. We are already looking forward the riding tours next summer!
