Description

Discover the beauty of the Landmannalaugar highlands in this super jeep tour. This nine-hour guided tour takes you close to one of Iceland’s most colorful and fascinating regions, rich in picturesque sights, culture, and hot spring bathing.

The adventure starts when a super jeep picks you up from Reykjavik or its surrounding areas. From there, you will drive along the South Coast and through Landmannaleid or the F225. This route is one of the most beautiful drives in Iceland because of its breathtaking landscapes.

Though it’s a long drive, your eyes will already be filled with natural wonders on the way to the Fjallabak Nature Reserve, where Landmannalaugar is located.

As the super jeep drives along the rugged landscape, you’ll see Landmannalaugar’s majestic mountains. Landmannalaugar is made up of windswept rhyolite mountains that create an array of jaw-dropping colors, such as red, blue, green, golden yellow, and pink.

A private guide will share stories about the different sights you’ll encounter. The guide is very knowledgeable about the areas, so don’t be shy to ask questions about the place.

Another interesting stop is the Ljotipollur crater lake. Though translated as “ugly puddle” in English, Ljotipollur is far from being one. The crater is about 5.6 miles (nine kilometers) from Landmannalaugar and measures roughly a mile long (1.5 kilometers).

Its brims are noticeably high, and its surroundings are nothing short of jaw-dropping. As you marvel at the crater, you’ll notice layers of lava and lava rocks accentuating the beautiful turquoise-blue lake. Be sure to bring a good camera with you, as Ljotipollur is one of the most photographed spots in Iceland.

The tour also includes natural hot spring bathing at its finest. Landmannalaugar is known for its hot pools, where guests can relax in warm water while enjoying the majestic surroundings.

Expect to see some of Landmannalaugar’s most iconic volcanoes, like the Brennisteinsalda. This volcano has a height of 2,805 feet (855 meters) with diverse colors that will leave you in awe. Brennisteinsalda gets its colors from sulfur, red iron, green mosses, ashes, and blue and black lava.

After the super jeep tour, you will be returned to Reykjavik for drop-off. But during the drive back home, you can still admire other amazing sights like Mount Hekla. The mountain measures 4,892 feet (1,491 meters) and resembles an overturned boat when viewed by visitors from afar.

You’ll also pass by Seljalandsfoss, one of the most famous waterfalls on the South Coast of Iceland. Seljalandsfoss boasts a drop of 200 feet (60 meters), and visitors can fully encircle it.

Another iconic waterfall you’ll see is Skogafoss, one of the most visited waterfalls in Iceland. Situated between two cliffs, Skogafoss offers a majestic view like no other.
