Private Full-Day Super Jeep Tour in the Icelandic Highlands Departing from Kirkjubaejarklaustur

Embark on an exhilarating full-day tour in the Highlands of Iceland. This private tour is for up to four guests. This exciting super jeep excursion takes you into the heart of the Highlands, with visits to Langisjor Lake, Eldgja Canyon, and the Sveinstindur mountain peak.

Your adventure begins with pickup at your accommodation in Kirkjubaejarklaustur. Alternatively, you can meet at the Langisjor campsite. You'll meet your expert local guide and board the robust super jeep here.

A super jeep is a specially modified 4x4 vehicle designed to tackle Iceland's rugged terrain, allowing access to remote areas ordinary cars can't reach.

Your journey starts along mountain roads, winding through breathtaking landscapes.

As you venture towards the Eldgja Canyon, your guide will share fascinating insights about the Skaftareldar eruption of the Laki fissure in 1783. You'll catch a glimpse of this eruption later today.

Your first stop is the Holaskjol Highland Center, a mountain lodge. You can pick up some refreshments here and take a minute to stretch your legs. Your guide will also take you to a hidden waterfall here before you continue.

Next, you'll go in the super jeep to the Eldgja canyon. Formed by eruptions in 934 AD, this massive fissure stretches over 37 miles (60 kilometers) from the Gjatindur mountain to the Myrdalsjokull glacier.

The guide will tell you about its formation and take you to the stunning Ofaerufoss waterfall, a highlight of the area.

For those eager to explore, hiking for a few hours is an option. The terrain offers a glimpse into Iceland's raw beauty and the dramatic landscapes of the Highlands.

Next, you'll drive for about an hour through unspoiled mountains to reach the breathtaking Lake Langisjor.

One of Europe's most beautiful highland lakes, Langisjor Lake, sits between the Tungnarfjoll and Fogrufjoll mountains on the western edge of the Vatnajokull glacier.

The lake's expanse is impressive, stretching over 12 miles (20 kilometers) in length and up to 1.2 miles (2 kilometers) in width. The surrounding views are magnificent, so ensure your camera is ready.

At the southern end of the lake lies Mount Sveinstindur, offering one of the most spectacular views over Lake Langisjor. Weather permitting, you can opt for a hike to the mountain's peak.

This challenging trek involves a steep climb with an elevation gain of about 1300 feet (400 meters), requiring a good fitness level.

If hiking isn't your preference or weather conditions are unfavorable, your guide will take you to an accessible viewpoint in the super jeep, ensuring you don't miss out on the stunning scenery.

After an exciting day in the Highlands, your guide will take you back to the starting point. You'll leave the area with a camera full of photos and fantastic memories.
