Immersive 12 Hour Super Jeep Tour to Thorsmork Valley from Reykjavik
Description
Summary
Description
Discover the ‘Valley of Thor’, Thorsmork, on a thrilling super jeep tour from Reykjavik. Travelers hoping to witness Iceland’s most breathtaking hidden landscapes without missing out on any adventure will love what this tour provides.
Your guide will pick you up in your monstrous super jeep from the capital. With its enormous tires and other modifications, you’ll immediately note how well equipped it is for the rugged terrain of Iceland’s highlands. After meeting the rest of your small group, you’ll set out from Reykjavik and begin to travel into Iceland’s beautiful nature.
You’ll travel through the south of the country, a region that boasts striking coastlines, geothermal villages, and rural bliss. After just over an hour of enjoying these sites, you will turn towards the country’s interior and sit in awe as the landscapes become far more dramatic, barren, primordial, and remote.
During this part of the journey, you’ll drive on gravel rather than paved roads, which are fun to traverse due to their bumpy nature, particularly from the safety of a super jeep. You’ll also have to embark on some river crossings, adding even more to the sense of adventure!
Once you reach Thorsmork, you will not doubt why it was named after the most powerful of the Old Norse Gods. Three enormous glaciers shelter it, including Eyjafjallajokull, famous for its 2010 eruption. It is possible to walk right up to their tongues. Their presence has led to many beautiful streams and waterways, further leading to an abundance of flora. Verdant moss covers the lava, and forests of Icelandic birch thrive here.
You will get plenty of time to explore, photograph, and hike the landscapes here. Your guide will also be on hand to answer any questions you might have about the area.
After a fantastic time in one of Iceland’s most memorable corners, you’ll return to the super jeep for an exciting ride back to the capital.
Set out on a fantastic super jeep adventure to marvel over Thorsmork, the Valley of Thor, from Reykjavik. Check availability by choosing a date.
