Join us on this adventurous two day and one night tour into Þórsmörk Valley.
Experience a once in a lifetime opportunity to spend a night in this incredibly magical valley!
We start our trip by driving towards Þórsmörk valley, either from your accommodation or from the base on road 249, around 3 kilometers from Seljalandsfoss waterfall. To get to this secluded valley we drive on a rough F-road and cross several gushing glacial rivers. The drive itself is quite the adventure!
When in Þórsmörk we enjoy the contrasted view of rough mountain ridges and the beautiful Icelandic nature. We also hike some beautiful trails and look for signs of elves and trolls! We also observe the marks that the many volcanic eruptions have had on the area.
We view the majestic Eyjafjallajökull glacier from below, and feast on a nice BBQ dinner at the famous Volcano Huts in Húsadalur, where you will stay for the night.
After dinner you can go out and enjoy the bright Icelandic summer night or in winter time gaze at the sky for some flickering stars and dancing northern lights.
Our guides are locals with years of experience and an endless passion for the Icelandic nature. They posses infinite knowledge of the area and provide you with enlightening entertainment along the way.
The next day we continue to explore the beautiful valley. Since the 1918 eruption of Katla, Þórsmörk was designated as a Natural Mountain Reserve and because of that, parts of the valley have become rich with mosses, ferns and birch trees.
In the early afternoon we start to head back out of the valley, but the trip does not end there as the scenic drive gives great photo opportunities and spectacular hiking options.
Are you looking to immerse yourself in Icelandic nature? Then this is the perfect tour for you!
