Description

Take a one-way bus transfer from Reykjavik to Landmannalaugar, enjoying a scenic route through Iceland’s striking highlands. This 4-hour service is ideal for those looking to escape the city and explore Landmannalaugar's hiking trails and hot springs, whether you're a seasoned adventurer or simply someone eager to witness the unique beauty of volcanic terrain.

This one-way bus transfer from Reykjavik to Landmannalaugar is your gateway to Iceland’s dramatic highlands, where nature’s beauty is on full display. The journey, approximately 118 miles (190 kilometers), takes around 4 hours, allowing you plenty of time to relax and enjoy the landscape as it unfolds.

The bus departs from two convenient locations in Reykjavik: City Hall (Vonarstraeti 4) and the Laugadalur campsite (Sundlaugavegur 32). Simply choose the pick-up point that suits you best and prepare for an unforgettable journey.

Once you hit the road, you’ll witness the transition from Reykjavik’s urban energy to Iceland's vast, untouched wilderness. Along the way, your driver will skillfully navigate the mountainous paths that lead to Landmannalaugar, where the real adventure begins.

The route itself is an adventure, passing through volcanic fields, moss-covered lava rocks, and barren, yet beautiful, landscapes that feel as though they've been untouched by time. Additionally, traveling with a vehicle and driver specially suited for the rugged terrain ensures a smooth and comfortable ride.

After roughly four hours, the highland bus will drop you off at the basecamp or service station of Landmannalaugar. From here, you may explore Landmannalaugar independently or with your pre-booked guided tour.

Landmannalaugar is truly a haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. This area is known for its colorful rhyolite mountains, steaming hot springs, and unique volcanic terrain.

The destination is perfect for those seeking hiking adventures, photographers eager to capture stunning landscapes, or anyone wishing to experience Iceland's unspoiled beauty. With a variety of trails to explore, each offering its own breathtaking view, Landmannalaugar promises an unforgettable experience.

The service to Landmannalaugar starts on June 20th, 2025, and the road is usually clear by then. However, there’s a slight chance it could remain closed due to lingering snow.
