Description

Hike into Reykjadalur, the "Steam Valley," on this private half-day tour from Reykjavik, and soak in a river naturally heated by the earth.

You're picked up at your accommodation in Reykjavik or a nearby bus stop. The start time depends on the season and is later in winter.

Your guide drives you about 40 minutes from Reykjavik to Reykjadalur, an active geothermal valley with steaming hillsides, bubbling hot springs, and green valleys.

The trail winds through landscapes shaped by volcanic forces and is mostly uphill. It takes about an hour to reach the warm river, and no experience is needed as long as you can hike uphill for that long. In winter, your guide brings crampons for the icy trail.

At the end of the trail, a warm river runs through the valley, heated naturally by the earth. You have time to relax in the water, surrounded by steam and mountains, and eat the lunch or snack you've brought.

Afterward, you hike back down to the parking area, and your guide drives you back to your accommodation in Reykjavik.
