With this 4-hour service, you can enjoy a one-way transfer from Reykjavik to Landmannalaugar and get access to the Laugavegur Trail. Take as much time as you need for your hike, allowing you to fully experience the beauty of the trails at your own pace.

Your journey begins with a scheduled pick-up from one of two central locations in Reykjavik. Board the bus at either Reykjavik City Hall at Vonarstraeti 4 or Laugardalur campsite at Sundlaugavegur 32. Choose the departure time that suits you best, either in the morning at 7:30 or midday at 12:30.

Once on board, let an experienced driver navigate the rugged highland roads while you sit back and enjoy the journey. You’ll travel aboard a modern bus equipped with air conditioning, reclining seats, and large panoramic windows perfect for sightseeing.

After about four hours, you’ll arrive at Landmannalaugar, where the natural beauty of the southern Icelandic Highlands awaits. During the summer, this remote spot becomes one of Iceland’s top hiking destinations with unique trails, hot springs, and breathtaking landscapes.

Landmannalaugar sits at the northern end of the Laugavegur, an iconic 36-mile (54-kilometer) route leading to Thorsmork. As you hike, you’ll pass through ever-changing landscapes, including colorful rhyolite mountains, vast black sand deserts, steaming natural pools, and glacial rivers.

You can choose a short and easy day hike or complete the Laugavegur hike over three to four days, experiencing Iceland’s ever-changing terrain. After your hike, book your return transfer from Thorsmork to Reykjavik or Landmannalaugar to Reykjavik, giving you the freedom to adapt your journey and travel at your own pace.

This Landmannalaugar bus transfer operates daily during the summer months from mid-June to early September when conditions are ideal for hiking. If unexpected snow makes the route impassable, flexible options allow you to reschedule or reroute to Thorsmork, ensuring your adventure continues.

We recommend booking at least 24 hours in advance on weekdays and even earlier before weekends, as seats are guaranteed only for confirmed bookings. If you miss your scheduled departure, you can hop on the next available bus free of charge.

Please note that the return trip from Landmannalaugar to Reykjavik is not included here and should be booked separately.
