Itinerary

1

Lake Mývatn snowmobile adventure

Glide across a brilliant northern winter landscape

Follow the guide onto a snow-covered route where volcanic hills, frozen expanses and enormous northern skies create a thrilling natural arena. The machine adds exhilarating movement to the scenery while required equipment and route guidance keep the experience focused on enjoying winter Lake Mývatn at its most cinematic.

2

Mývatn Nature Baths

Warm geothermal water beneath northern skies

Ease into mineral-rich geothermal water with broad views across lava fields and the Lake Mývatn landscape. The warm blue pools create a beautifully relaxed contrast to the day’s waterfalls and volcanic terrain, turning a sightseeing route into a complete North Iceland experience when admission is included in the selected booking.

3

Goðafoss

The spectacular Waterfall of the Gods

Watch glacial water sweep across a broad horseshoe of dark rock before dropping in a brilliant white curtain. Goðafoss combines beauty, power and one of Iceland’s defining conversion-era stories, making it far more than a roadside waterfall and a magnificent gateway to the Lake Mývatn region.

4

Lake Mývatn

A volcanic lake alive with colour and birdlife

Shallow blue water, green wetlands, black lava and crater-shaped hills meet around Lake Mývatn, creating one of Iceland’s richest volcanic landscapes. The lake is internationally celebrated for birdlife, yet its greatest appeal is the constantly changing contrast between water, lava and open northern sky.

5

Return to Akureyri

A satisfying close to a varied northern day

Settle back into the vehicle after a wonderful contrast of volcanic landscapes, geothermal warmth and snowmobile excitement. The return through North Iceland gives you time to revisit the day’s photographs and enjoy the mountain-framed approach to Akureyri before the confirmed drop-off.
