Haukur frá Stuðlum is a first prize stallion we imported from Iceland in 2009. Haukur means "Hawk"

His bloodlines are impressive, with two Honor Prize parents. His father a famous Icelandic stallion Dynur frá Hvammi ( highest assessement score 8.47 and his mother Perna fra Arnaholi ( highest assessement 8.27). She is a wonderful broodmare with offspring whom have been doing very well in competitions and getting impressive scores at breed shows. Son Draupnir from Studlum judged total of 8.68 in 2016. 

Haukur was an obvious choice for us here at Haldane Icelandic horses. We were looking for a proven stallion with great Tolt, a horse that could be ridden by us (at that stage novice to intermediate riders) who would produce offspring suited for pleasure riding.

Amy had the joy of riding him for the 1st time in Iceland, and it didn't take too long for her to fall in love with him . She also had the opportunity to see his babies and grandbabies ... not bad for a 7 year stallion. Feedback from friends in Iceland whom have had some of his offspring come for training in the last years, have told us they are lovely horses, a pleasure to train with easy gaits. We bought Haukur from Viðar Ingólfsson in Iceland - www.tumi.is 

Since arriving in Australia after a long quarantine in the UK, Haukur has been out and about wooing the crowds at Equitana, been a film star, dragged down to the beach for photo shoots, and given us some gorgeous babies. We are very pleased with his Australian born offspring. Many are now going under saddle and are proving to be easy to train and fun to own. 

Haukur has over 60 offspring registered on Worldfengur. 

He's a very good dad, often acting as babysitter to the foals while the mares in his breeding group relax. 

If you come and visit the farm or attend a clinic Haukur is one of our most reliable lesson horse. He adapts well to new riders and instills confidence while giving the rider to chance to experience tolt on a well trained horse. 

Haukur is standing at stud at Haldane Icelandic horses this summer - Please contact Amy for more details.
