About us
Morten Hansen and Siri Standal currently run Åsli Riding Center in Åsmarka. Today, we have around 100 students at the riding school and offer horseback rides for both tourists and locals on weekends.
Morten, who is a trained carpenter, started working with horses at an early age. His childhood home in Skjetten became Åsli Riding Center in 1989, and since then, it has followed him — first to Hamar, where we ran the riding school for five years, before it eventually settled in Åsmarka.
Siri is a trained teacher and worked in that profession until 2003, when she began working full-time at the riding school.
Riding school
The riding school has 30 Icelandic horses and five Fjord horses. Our Fjord horses are mainly used for trail riding and sleigh rides, while the Icelandic horses are used in the riding school. We hold riding classes on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays — and on Saturdays by appointment. Our groups are tailored to age and skill level, for both children and adults.
We have a large, well-lit riding arena where most of the lessons take place, but we also include some trail rides in the course schedule.
We lend out helmets and safety vests.

Horseback ride
We offer trail rides for both experienced and inexperienced riders, children and adults. We can adjust the duration of the rides to suit your wishes, and we ride both from the farm in Åsmarka and from Sjusjøen. By arrangement, we can also transport the horses to your preferred location.
Sleigh ride
We offer sleigh rides and carriage driving year-round for corporate parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties, birthdays, and more. We have a wide selection of sleighs and wagons that can be tailored to suit the occasion.
We can also come to your event location.
Children's birthdays
Åsli also offers riding activities for class parties or children's birthday parties.
We provide horses, vests, helmets, hairnets, saddles, and harnesses.
We bring experienced handlers to lead the horses — safety is our top priority.
