Hike to Volcanic Eruption Sites & Reykjanes Tour
Join us on the ultimate volcanic and geothermal adventure only Iceland has to offer! We pick you up in Reykjavík and hike through lava moss-covered terrain to Fagradalsfjall Volcano where thousands of earthquakes formed the multiple volcanoes in Gelldingalur Valley. The beautiful backcountry of Reykjanes Peninsula offers a chance to experience geothermal wonders, natural phenomena, and places of stunning beauty! The senses are in for the ride of your life to the volcano eruption site, earthquakes moving continents apart, amazing scenery, and geothermal activity out of this world.
The lava surrounded fish-hangars, lake Kleifarvatn with its stunning beaches, Gunnuhver hot springs in Krýsuvík geothermal area, Fagradalsfjall Eruption, Reykjanesviti lighthouse, and coastal features along with the Bridge between two Continents where you can walk between two tectonic plates are just a few of the amazing places this tour has to offer.
