Sigurður Hlíðar Jakobsson and Helga Guðrún Sturlaugsdóttir, usually Helga and Siggi, are the farmers and your hosts at Finnsstaðir. Helga is a pharmacy technician by trade, but a host and a horsewoman by passion. Siggi is a mechanic and a jack-of-all-trades. He speaks Icelandic and Horse interchangeably but is more about translating words into action. When you drive down to the farmyard, you will most likely encounter a warm and cheerful hostess. That would be Helga, all prepared to accommodate your wants and needs.

Finnsstaðir is located in the center of East Iceland which makes it an ideal station for day trips to the Eastfjords, the fishing villages by the coast, the waterfalls Hengifoss and Fardagafoss, Hallormsstadaskógur National Forest, Vök Baths etc. For hikers, there are plenty of interesting and diverse hiking paths in the vicinity at all difficulty levels.
