Far beyond what you could reach on foot, this guided ATV tour in Iceland takes you beyond the hiking trails. Ride deep into remote terrain and get the chance to spot elusive wildlife in its natural habitat.

Your experience begins in the ATV base near Asbyrgi, a dramatic horseshoe-shaped wonder carved into Iceland’s highlands. Meet your expert local guide and get equipped with helmets, gloves, and waterproof gear to stay warm and dry. After a short briefing, it’s time to fire up the engines and hit the trail with your group.

As you journey across the black sand plains, ancient lava fields come into view, and jagged cliffs rise on the horizon. The landscape feels wild, but the route is easy to handle, making it a great choice even for first-time riders.

Next, the trail follows the path of the powerful Jokulsa a Fjollum. You’ll get a front-row seat to witness the beauty of Iceland’s second-longest river. This glacier-fed waterway has carved deep canyons and gorges over thousands of years.

As the trail approaches the coast, the scenery opens to sea views. In summer, you might spot seals resting by the river or birds gliding overhead. Your guide provides a telescope to enjoy the view without disturbing the animals in their natural habitat. This unique chance to connect with Iceland’s wild side is what makes the experience so memorable.

When the ride wraps up, the adventure doesn’t have to end. Just a short drive away, you’ll find powerful waterfalls like Dettifoss, Selfoss, and Hafragilsfoss, each plunging into deep gorges with a roar you won’t forget. These natural giants offer epic photo moments. Don’t forget your camera!

This small-group ATV tour is perfect for travelers seeking a personal and beginner-friendly experience. With a maximum of eight participants, you’ll enjoy plenty of guidance and the chance to ask your local guide questions.

Please note that drivers must bring a valid driver's license to operate the ATV. Non-drivers are welcome to join as passengers and still enjoy the full adventure.
