At Krókur in Ásahreppur we run a horse breeding farm where we breed horses under the name of Margrétarhof, but the name refers to the breeding of Icelandic Horses the owners conduct on their ranch in Sweden, Margaretehof (www.mhof.se). The goal is to have a competitive breeding with 8-10 excellent mares. Krókur is also a comprehensive training center, but we offer riding lessons as well as to always have on variety of good and well trained horses for sale. We also offer feeding service for all horses, all year round.

OUR FACILITIES

Who are we?

The Montan family

Owners

The owners of Margrétarhof, the Montan family, had long dreamt about acquiring their own place in Iceland when the farm Krókur went on sale. There they found their dream place and have built up the facilities with much grace.

The Montan family are Göran og Viveca Montan and their children, Alexandra Montan, Gry Filippa Montan og Beata Moberg. The whole family ride and train horses with great enthusiasm, along with competing among the best both in Sweden and Europe.
