In the summer of 1980 Jon and Nicole, at that time traditional farmers, decided to take a short riding vacation into the highland on horseback to spend a few relaxing days, enjoying the unspoiled nature. The riding tour was pleasant, but also eventful because they just made it on the horses home before Mt. Hekla erupted! Returning home from the riding tour they developed their idea to offer more people the opportunity to travel into the wilderness with the quiet and friendly Icelandic horses. This was a original idea, as at that time there were no organized horse riding tours into the highlands. With his years of experience as a farmer, collecting sheep and going fishing in the Veidivotn area, Jon has been able to share his knowledge by taking the tours through the most beautiful and dramatic scenery around Mt. Hekla. For thirty years the small family company has guided many groups of people coming from all over the world through the rugged area of Hekla. Now Jón and Nicole´s daughter Anita is continuing the family tradition, and is taking over the leading of the riding tours in which she has been involved every year since she was a little child. Stefnir who is the partner of Anita has joined the family and is as well leading the trips. He is a man of many talents, what ever he does, leading groups in the highlands, training young horses or playing the accordion. www.hekluhestar.is
