Thorsmork, also known as the Valley of Thor, is a nature reserve within the southern Highlands, between three major glaciers, Eyjafjallajokull glacier, Myrdalsjokull glacier, and Tindfjallajokull glacier. Eyjafjallajokull is famous for its 2010 volcanic eruption that caused widespread air traffic disturbances across Europe. 

From the ice-capped peaks to jagged mountain ridges and lush birch forests, there is plenty to explore in the Thorsmork nature reserve. The super jeep is a four-wheel drive vehicle that is specially designed to access parts of Iceland that are unsuitable for other vehicles. 

On this tour, you will cross several rivers which are unsuitable for an unmodified vehicle to handle. The super-jeeps have special tires and can tackle all different types of terrain. 

The super jeeps on this tour even have free Wi-Fi, so you can upload photos to your social media channels while passing through the glaciers in Iceland's swooping valleys.

Once you have made it to Thorsmork, you will head off on a 90-minute hike around Thorsmork ridge. Thorsmork ridge's trails provide easy to moderate walking, suitable for ages five and up.

During the hike, you will ascend around 722 feet (220 meters) to the summit of Valahnukur mountain. The mountain has an elevation of approximately 3,300 feet (1000 meters) above sea level. 

From the viewing platform on this peak, you can enjoy spectacular views of the gorgeous nature of Iceland, including rivers, glaciers, and waterfalls.

Every guide has their favorite place in Thorsmork, and your guide will show you theirs.

Some of the other highlights of the tour include Seljalandsfoss waterfall, which you can fully encircle, and Gljufrabui waterfall, a hidden feature most guests overlook.
