A brash, palomino with a big head of hair who arrived alongside Fálki and Mózart in 2021. He’s a fourgaiter with nice movements and belongs to Kerstin. Unfortunately, with his bright coatcolour in mind, he’s not one to ever say no to a nice mudbath.

s. Eldur frá Bjarghúsum
d. Ásadís frá Áskoti

Chestnut tobiano with lots of  white that came to us from Iceland in May 2024. Aron is a careful, but curious horse , sensitive and forwards.

d. Ùlfhildur frá Kjartansstöðum

A black mare that moved in during the late spring of 2021. She’s quite green still but has all the basics down and is happy to work. A horse suited for the more experienced rider. She thinks a lot, and can find it a bit boring to stand around doing nothing for too long.

Gneisti frá Lynghóli

Gelding born 2008
s. Krákur frá Blesatöðum 1A
d. Leista frá Lynghóli

Black four-gaited horse with blue eyes and a big personality. And lots of opinions. Before he came to us in 2014 he covered a few mares in Iceland. He’s competed a lot and has a really nice set of gaits. A small but fast one!

Mare born 2015
s. Gangster frá Árgerði
d. Kráka frá Blesastöðum 1A

A younger flaxen chestnut that moved here at the same time as Folda. Very petite in the build and definitely on the smaller side sizewise. A curious and resolute little lady with a nick for chewing on fencepoles. Also known as “the Beaver”…

Hekla frá Kvistum

Mare born 2017
s. Ómur frá Kvistum
d. Höll frá Norður-Hvammi

Hrafna frá Austurkoti

Mare born 2013
s. Gaumur frá Auðsholtshjáleigu
d. Hylling frá Minni-Borg

A big, black fourgaiter with nice, powerful movements. She tries her best to get the other girls to play with her but they’re a little more laidback unfortunately. She’s Matti’s showhorse and came here in 2019.

Jökull frá Selfossi

Gelding born 2014
s. Huginn frá Hága I

Gelding born 2009
s. Klerkur frá Bjarnanesi
d. Von frá Rauðbarðaholti

Quickwitted, fun grey gelding that moved here in 2014. He’s been to a few competitions and has nice gaits. A horse with a lot of humour, that enjoys expressing himself. He’s also a fantastic swimmer!

d. Alda från Wahlberg

A cute chestnut tobiano with a quite special look that moved in in November, 2023. He’s fourgaited with an extra plus for the tolt and will eventually be Matti’s showhorse. He’s definitely not a fan of staying clean, those white parts are more often than not brown.

Gelding born 2009
s. Flipi från Österåker
d. Kátína frá Vestri-Leirárgörðum

Born here at the farm, this is the son of Matti’s previous horse, Kátína. He has four good gaits but is a sensitive fellow that easily gets stressed out if he’s put under too much pressure. He’s been clickertrained a lot and really enjoys that kind of communication. 

Magni frá Bæ

Gelding born 2019
s. Váli frá Bæ
d. Ósk frá Bæ

Magni just moved in here in Puoltsa and we are still getting to know him. He is a charming, fun and curious brown gelding with beautiful gaits, but not the best patience at the moment… Him, and his friend Mökkur, who arrived here at the same time, are just settling in for the moment being, and we are focusing on getting to know each other.  

Mózart från Hålåsen​

Gelding born 2010
s. Reimar från Hålåsen

Gelding born 2019
s. Vigri frá Bæ 
d. Djásn frá Melum

A beautiful black gelding with a lot of hair, that moved her in the autumn of 2025 from Iceland, together with Magni. He is curious, but a bit cautious with new things.

Gelding born 2010
s. Hlekkur frá Þóroddsstöðum
d. Djásn frá Melum

Sóley från Kebnekaisefjällen

Mare born 2009
s. Ísar frá Keldudal
d. Kosning frá Birkihlíð

A light chestnut dun with a star. She was born here and is the daugther of Kosning, Kerstin’s old horse. Nice to work with and has good gaits, but needs clear signals.

Gelding born 2007
s. Kjarni frá Þjóðólfshaga 1
d. Dýna frá Minni-Borg

Gelding born 2010
s. Þristur frá Minni-Borg
d. Sóley frá Stærri-Bæ

A tall chestnut who came to us from Iceland in 2017. He has a neverending will to please and do right for himself and is a pure joy to work with. Has four big, soft gaits and works as a lesson- and daytourhorse. 

Stjarni från Broaskog

Gelding born 2015
s. Hugur från Brösarpsgården
d. Ljosaðis från Broaskog

A bay dun tobiano that moved here at the end of spring, 2023. Stjarni is a curious horse, that likes to walk on and explore, and so he really enjoys the longer tours. Really loves water. 

Stormur frá Skarði

Gelding born 2012
s. Arður frá Brautarholti
d. Hringja frá Skarði 

Slender bay gelding who came to us in 2019. A little more on the sensitive side but has a good drive. The tolt is his best gait but the other three are in no way something to be complained about. He’s done a few rounds on the competitiontracks. 

Tígull frá Minni-Borg

Gelding born 2009
s. Fjarki frá Feti
d. Lísa frá Þorlákshöfn

A beautiful piebald of the bigger model, that moved here from Iceland in 2017.  He’s fivegaited with nice movements and great spirit. Does well with most things and can be ridden by most people. In the summertime he mostly works our long trailrides.

Wagner från Wahlberg

Gelding born 2014
s. Beethoven från Sundsberg
d. Grýla vom Ziegelhof

Wagner is a very cute black gelding that came to us in the spring of 2024. He is sensitive and attentive, and has started joining tours. He has gone on his first week tours and really enjoyed being out in the mountains. Wagner has 4 soft and nice gaits, but is still learning and under training. 

Eppo

Born 2023

A Finnish Samidog that moved to Jenny during the autumn of 2023. She’s started joining some rides, but can usually be found somewhere around the stables or in Smilla’s company.

Smilla

Born 2015

A wild lady with a strong will of her own and a very sharp mind. Mix of Bordercollie and Finnish Samidog. She tags along on some trailrides but the snowmobiletours are her absolute favourites. She’s a skilled rider!

Mysan

Born 2021

In June 2023, two Norwegian forestcats joined our stableteam again. Mysan, the calico, was quick to have a good look around when she and Simba arrived together. This is quite an extroverted little lady and she will talk to you about any- and everything. Loudly.

Simba

Born 2020

Simba is the orange tabby, and the more laidback one in our little catduo.  When the stable gets too lively he likes to retreat to one of his hideouts, and watch in secret. He does however love a good cuddlesession and is coming out of his shell slowly but surely.

Emma

Born 2019

Emma moved to us in November, 2023. She’s a few years older than Girjjat, also a Samigoat, and they’re slowly getting to know each other. Emma is a bit shy but she’s easy to differentiate from her roomie by her lighter coatcolour. 

Girjjat

Born 2021

Girjjat, which means spotted in sami, is a Samigoat. Our very best stablemascot. She enjoys the company of the horses and likes to take it easy, smell the flowers. Her coat is much darker than Emma’s.

Moose

We normally have about as many wild moose as we have horses here during the wintermonths. They come to us to steal hay from the horses, and walk about however they like. 

Reindeer

Both Kerstin and Matti own reindeer. In summer they stay up in the high mountains, grazing. As winter starts closing in they wander down to the woodlands. The reindeer is a very important animal to us and it’s a big part of the Sami culture.
