Icelanders have spent generations breeding their horses (the only type of horse allowed in the country) to withstand Iceland's unpredictable, and often bad weather and to be able to walk easily through the country's uneven, rocky terrain. They have a thick coat, are very friendly, and have two unique gaits, called tölt and flugskeið. You see them everywhere in the countryside, even more than cows!

We saw this handsome guy on our drive between Skógafoss and Vík.

"Hotel Kris was a lovely one night stay. The room is modern and clean. There's a fun game room upstairs with table tennis, darts and a pool table. There's also an upstairs lounge area, perfect for chatting with your friends about the day's adventures. The staff is friendly and helpful. The hotel is very centrally located and close to Black Crust pizza, which I also recommend."
