What to bring

Warm clothes (long underwear, woollen socks, scarf, gloves)
Sleepingbag and pillow
A small waist bag (not a backpack!) for using when riding. (Backpacks are not good because they bump around when you are riding and may hurt you if you fall off)
Swimwear and towel
Riding pants (If you don’t have riding pants, any seamless tight garment will do)
Sun lotion
Band-aids and second skin plasters for chaffing
Some comfortable clothes and shoes (slippers) for using in the evening, after the riding
Your travel insurance card/information
(Normal street clothes are not necessary except for your stay in Reykjavik the last night)

Caution: Used boots, riding wear, saddlebags etc. must be disinfected before arrival in Iceland. This is because infectious diseases can easily be brought into the country, which pose a great danger for the horses. Riding wear is normally washed, and shoes are cleaned with iodine or some other fluid disinfectant. All used leather articles are prohibited.
