Hrímnir Heritage clearly stands out for its distinctive look with a beautiful viking pattern on the flap and elegant metal plate at the cantle, which reminds of Icelandic culture. It was designed according to the principles of classical riding, having its deepest point in the middle of the seat which guarantees optimal weight distribution. Its seat and knee blocks support the rider’s position very well in an extraordinary comfortable way. The Hrímnir soft seat with an additional layer of BayFlex® foam offers superior comfort and safety. The high quality DuPont® Flex tree and the patented AMS® synthetic wool panels padding guarantee optimal weight distribution on the horse’s back. This provides stability, flexibility and maximum comfort for the horse. The very short/upswept panels are ideal to use on multiple horses. The patented AMS® synthetic wool panels are softer and kinder to the horse’s back, and combined with the wider channel, encourage the horse to lift and use its back more effectively, while providing the rider with a smoother, shock absorbing ride. The XChange® gullet plate system makes it easy to adjust the saddle width yourself easily for individual conformation or muscular changes in the horse. (The saddle comes with a head gullet in size Wide). The Heritage saddle is entirely made of the best quality leather available on the market, as well as high- tech materials. The leather was herbal and chrome tanned. Therefore, it is softer and features a better color quality. |

A land of fire and ice, with more sheep than inhabitants, characterized by a unique nature! This is just a brief description of such a diverse country. While a volcano may erupt on one side of the country, you can hike a glacier, admire the Northern Lights, or take a bath in a hot spring on the other side of the country - at the same time.
This not only speaks for diversity, but also for spontaneity, which is also reflected in the changeable weather in Iceland. A popular Icelandic saying is "If you do not like the current weather, just wait for five minutes".
In contrast to this inconsistency, one thing is constant and that is the enthusiasm for Icelandic horses! The Vikings brought horses to the island in the 9th century.
