Weight limit

Even though our horses are strong, we have a weight limit on the different types of horses we have. Lyngenhorse 80 kg, Fjordhorse and Dølahorse 95 kg on the short trips such as the Northern Lights tour and the Midnight Sun tour. On longer rides, the weight limits are also dependent on your riding skill but cannot exceed what is mentioned above.

Your skills

At Tromsø Turhest AS we have horses for everyone! We will choose a horse for you, depending on your weight, age and skills. To ensure the best experience, we ask you to provide information about riding skills, weight, height and age before the tour and when booking.

Children

The age limit for riding a horse alone is 12 years. For younger participants, it is still possible to join the trip, by booking an extra guide (+750 NOK). Under 10 years we offer a rental trip (Horseback riding for children - nut ride) for a safe start.
