Description
Combine two of Iceland’s most popular highland hiking trails, with a week you’ll never forget trekking from Landmannalaugar to Þórsmörk with a day hike up to the famous Fimmvörðuháls mountain pass. Those seeking to make the most of Iceland’s incredible natural beauty with a good level of fitness should not overlook this tour.
The adventure begins when you are transferred from Reykjavík to Landmannalaugar in the highlands. This oasis of hot springs, rivers and rhyolite mountains is unbelievably beautiful, but just a taste of what is ahead. From here, you will take the Laugavegur trail over four days to the stunning forested valley of Þórsmörk.
This route takes you by vast glaciers, around crater lakes, and across deserts of black sands, in an array of landscapes that look like they belong to another planet.
From Þórsmörk, you will go on a day hike up to Fimmvörðuháls mountain pass, famous for its dramatic volcanic landscape after a volcanic eruption in 2010. Take in the glacier views, steaming earth, and dramatic ridges and valleys, before returning to Þórsmörk in the evening.
On the last day in Þórsmörk, you will get a chance to explore this beautiful valley before returning to Reykjavík.
Your accommodation throughout the journey is in comfortable mountain huts. Your luggage will be taken from hut to hut for your convenience, and all meals are included for the duration of the tour.
Hikers will find no better way to spend a week in Iceland than by joining this excursion. Don't miss your chance. Check availability by choosing a date.
