Arrive on horseback!
Two of the Clans will ride to the gathering, before the larp starts they will be driven to a nearby riding facility where they will be lend a horse and set off on their in character journey back to the location.
You should expect to ride on an Icelandic Horse for two to three hours and happens during the first act. Doing so with modern gear for the horse, and a modern riding helmet.
The horses are not re-enactment trained, but rather traditional tourist horses. They have a carrying capacity ranging 80 kg to 90 kg, meaning you are unlikely to be able to wear armour. There is no insurance included in the horse rental; you are responsible for your insurance coverage and your health, as is the case with most activities in Denmark. We strongly recommend you wear the helmet.
The horses will be removed from the location after the first act, shortly after their arrival.
