Don't miss out on this adventurous day tour to the surreal, yet sublime, Landmannalaugar, one of the country's most wild and beautiful spots. This tour is the perfect opportunity for travellers hoping to experience some of the lesser-visited regions during their time in Iceland.
You will leave Iceland's charming capital city, Reykjavik, in the early morning, setting out towards the gorgeous Highlands in a specially modified Super Jeep, the perfect vehicle for traversing Landmannalaugar's tricky terrain.

From there, the tour continues through the amazing and dramatic mountainscapes that so characterise the area. You will stumble across the water-filled crater, Ljótipollur, one of the highlights of the day, before entering the Highlands themselves. When you do so, you will be immediately overcome with the colourful, kaleidoscopic hillsides visible from every window of your Super Jeep.
In the heart of Landmannalaugar, you will have the chance to take a bath in a natural hot-spring; the area is dotted with geothermally heated pools, landing the region the title "The Pools of the People". Please make sure to bring a towel and swimwear if you're looking to enjoy these soothing waters, all the while surrounded by the dazzling Rhyolite mountains. Alternatively, you could decide to take a small hike through the area.
After relaxing in the pool, or once you're back from your short hike, the tour will take you to the Queen of Icelandic volcano's, Mount Hekla. You will be driven up to a height of approx. 900 meters above sea-level to capture some astonishing views in all directions. make sure not to forget your camera; you will definitely want to snapshot the gorgeous and sweeping panoramas.
So hurry now! Don't miss your chance to visit this surreal and fantastical area for a unique chance to explore the Icelandic central highlands. Check availability by choosing a date.
