Tour Details

Prepare to be swept away on an extraordinary journey through the heart of Iceland's untamed wilderness, where the raw beauty of Landmannalaugar awaits. This hidden gem, tucked away in the highlands, promises an adventure like no other, far from the well-trodden paths of the Golden Circle and southern coastline. As you board our rugged highland bus, specially equipped to conquer the challenging F-roads, anticipation builds for the wonders that lie ahead.

The journey begins with a visit to Hjálparafoss, a mesmerizing double waterfall nestled in the Þjórsárdalur valley. Here, the Þjórsá and Fossá rivers converge, creating a stunning cascade framed by ancient basalt formations, remnants of the fiery eruptions from the nearby Hekla volcano. The air is filled with the soothing sound of rushing water, and the sight of the falls, once a vital oasis for weary travelers, is a testament to nature's enduring power.

Next, we venture to the awe-inspiring Háifoss and Granni waterfalls, where the Fossá river plunges over 100 meters into a dramatic canyon. As you stand in awe of Háifoss, Iceland's fourth highest waterfall, the sheer force and volume of water create a misty veil that dances in the sunlight. Granni, its graceful neighbor, cascades elegantly over multiple tiers, each drop a symphony of nature's grandeur.

Our journey continues to the enchanting Hnausapollur volcanic crater lake, a hidden treasure often overshadowed by its more famous counterparts. The lake's turquoise waters, a striking contrast against the rugged volcanic landscape, invite you to pause and reflect on the ancient forces that shaped this land over 1,200 years ago.

Finally, we arrive at the crown jewel of our adventure: Landmannalaugar. This highland paradise, part of the expansive Fjallabak nature reserve, is a kaleidoscope of colors, with its rhyolite hills and sprawling lava fields. As you hike through this otherworldly terrain, each step reveals new vistas, from vibrant mineral-streaked mountains to serene valleys. The crisp mountain air fills your lungs, and the sense of accomplishment grows with every stride.

After an invigorating hike, soothe your weary muscles in the natural hot springs, where the warm, mineral-rich waters offer a blissful respite. As you soak, surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the highlands, time seems to stand still, and the worries of the world fade away.

As the day draws to a close, we begin our journey back to the city, your heart full of memories and your camera brimming with photos of Iceland's hidden wonders. This is not just a tour; it's an unforgettable odyssey through the soul of Iceland's wild and untouched landscapes.
