The flying pace is the “fifth gear” of the icelandic horse, offering a two-beat lateral movement with suspension. This gait is ridden very fast, even used for racing and only for short distances, 100-200 metres usually. Not all Icelandic horses can pace, but those that manage all five gaits well are considered the best of the breed. This video was taken during a visit to our partners and friends from Hestamiðstöðin Söðulsholt :) You can find more information about all five gaits on our website:

Beyond the standard walk, trot, canter, and gallop, they possess the ability to tölt—a smooth, four-beat gait—and perform the flying pace, or skeið, a high-speed lateral gait used in racing.
