Kvarnbacka – Where the ride of your life begins
Many find it hard to take a break from everyday life, but at Kvarnbacka Islandshästar, time slows down the moment you settle into the saddle. For a while, you can forget all your worries and simply enjoy life.
Professional, safe & unique
Kvarnbacka has, since its founding over 30 years ago, been shaped by a deep love for the Icelandic horse and a passion for sharing their strength and charm with the world. Our mission and vision are clear:
”To deliver professional, safe, and unique riding experiences on happy, healthy Icelandic horses—offering not just trail rides, but memories for a lifetime. Every horse in our herd is handpicked by us, and we are the go-to destination for those seeking truly exceptional horses. Through our work, we bring the magic of Icelandic horses to the world!”
Since 2019, Kvarnbacka has been owned and run by Anna Nilsson, whose lifelong dedication to the business has made her an inseparable part of its DNA. Under Anna’s leadership, no experience is too luxurious, no idea impossible and no stable aisle too well-swept.
