Pick-up is 30 minutes before the scheduled departure. You'll travel on a bus to the ziplining base camp near Hveragerdi, the location for the adventure.
In less than an hour, you'll arrive at the starting point, full of anticipation for what lies ahead. The base camp is at the trailhead of the Reykjadalur hot spring valley. It's a beautiful location featuring a canyon, rugged hills, a thermal river, and waterfalls.
The tour's total duration is just over three hours, with roughly 40 minutes allocated for the ziplining excursion. When you arrive, you'll complete the necessary paperwork and receive a safety briefing.
Then, it's time for a short shuttle bus trip to the top of the canyon, followed by a short walk up to the zipline launching platform.
Expert guides will ensure your safety. You'll wear a specialized harness, helmet, and goggles for the best possible ziplining experience.
Prior experience isn't necessary to participate in this exhilarating activity, and children as young as nine can join the fun. The minimum weight is 66 lb (30 kg), and the maximum is 265 lb (120 kg).
You'll complete the conventional zipline ride called "Free as a Bird." It places you in a seated harness with your legs extended in front. You can stretch your arms wide and feel like a bird flying across the sky!
Two zip lines lie side by side. The other is the Superman ride, known as "The Falcon," where zipliners lie stretched out and whiz head-first over the canyon.
With the harness and other safety gear on, it's time for the flight of your life! Feel the wind on your face and the adrenalin rush as you zoom over Iceland's breathtaking and unique terrain.
From the top of the canyon, you'll marvel at the vistas of Hveragerdi town, followed by unmatched views of the Reykjadalur valley. Witness the canyon stretched below amid the vast countryside featuring rivers, hills, and waterfalls.
