Sweden Holidays: horse riding holidays in Sweden for independents, families and groups

Experiences > Horse Riding

For riders, Sweden is a dream destination: mile upon mile of wonderful riding terrain. Our riding tours take place across the vast untouched mountain plains of northern Sweden, in the area in and around Vindelfjällen, Europe's largest nature reserve. Here you will find the true spirit of the frontier alive and well.

The Icelandic horses used in these experiences are sure-footed and good-natured, and will be trusty companions on your journey of discovery into the mountains of Lapland, a beautiful world of wide horizons and big skies, rich in wildlife and cultural history.

If you would like to combine horse riding with other activities during your holiday, you may also be interested in some of the exciting experiences listed in our Summer Multi-activity and Winter Multi-activity sections.
