Discover the breathtaking beauty of Thorsmork Valley on this unforgettable two-day, one-night adventure. Surrounded by glaciers, rugged mountain ridges, and lush green landscapes, you’ll journey deep into one of Iceland’s most spectacular highland destinations.
Spend the night immersed in this magical and remote valley — a rare opportunity to truly experience the wild serenity and raw nature of Thorsmork. Your trip begins by driving towards Thorsmork Valley, either from your accommodation or from the base on road 249, around 1.8 miles (3 kilometers) from Seljalandsfoss Waterfall. To get to this secluded valley, you'll drive on a rough F-road and cross several gushing glacial rivers. The drive itself is quite the adventure!
When in Thorsmork, you'll enjoy the contrasted view of rough mountain ridges and the beautiful Icelandic nature. You'll also hike some beautiful trails and look for signs of elves and trolls! You'll also observe the marks that the many volcanic eruptions have had on the area.
See the majestic Eyjafjallajokull Glacier from below, and feast on a nice BBQ dinner at the famous Volcano Huts in Husadalur, where you will stay for the night.
After dinner, you can go out and enjoy the bright Icelandic summer night or in the winter time gaze at the sky for some flickering stars and dancing northern lights.
The guides are locals with years of experience and an endless passion for the Icelandic nature. They possess infinite knowledge of the area and provide you with enlightening entertainment along the way.
The next day, you'll continue to explore the beautiful valley. Since the 1918 eruption of Katla, Thorsmork 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, you'll head back out of the valley, but the trip does not end there, as the scenic drive offers great photo opportunities and spectacular hiking options.
