Description

This Super Jeep journey is built around the contrasts that make the southern highlands so irresistible: rough volcanic tracks and delicate waterfalls, black lava and rainbow-coloured mountains, cool rivers and naturally warm water.

The vehicle carries you beyond the paved road to Landmannalaugar, where short walks reveal rhyolite ridges and obsidian lava. Sigöldugljúfur adds its unforgettable collection of blue streams and green-edged cascades.

With room for exploration and a restorative geothermal bath, the day feels both adventurous and deeply rewarding.

Itinerary

1

Reykjavík pickup

Highland journey begins

Leave the capital from the pickup point shown on your voucher and watch settled farmland give way to lava, broad valleys and the increasingly wild horizons of Iceland’s southern interior. The stop gives you time to enjoy the colours, scale and striking contrasts that make the Icelandic highlands so memorable.

2

Hjálparfoss

Twin waterfall in a lava valley

See two graceful streams meet in a broad pool framed by basalt and soft vegetation, a beautiful oasis close to the meeting point of the Þjórsá and Fossá rivers. The stop gives you time to enjoy the colours, scale and striking contrasts that make the Icelandic highlands so memorable.

3

Sigöldugljúfur

The Valley of Tears

Discover an enchanting canyon where spring-fed blue streams and numerous delicate waterfalls weave through dark lava, green moss and vivid highland vegetation. The stop gives you time to enjoy the colours, scale and striking contrasts that make the Icelandic highlands so memorable.

4

Hnausapollur

Blue lake in a rust-red crater

Look into a vivid crater where deep blue water, iron-rich slopes and surrounding lava create one of the most colourful volcanic panoramas along the highland route. There is time to absorb the scenery before the route continues through another dramatic chapter of Iceland’s volcanic interior.

5

Landmannalaugar walk

Rhyolite colour at close range

Step into the painted mountain landscape on a rewarding walk beside obsidian lava, steaming ground and ridges coloured by the minerals of an ancient volcanic system. The stop gives you time to enjoy the colours, scale and striking contrasts that make the Icelandic highlands so memorable.

6

Landmannalaugar

Rhyolite mountains and warm water

Arrive among painted mountains, black obsidian lava and steaming ground, then explore on foot and enjoy the beautiful contrast of a natural geothermal pool when conditions allow. There is time to absorb the scenery before the route continues through another dramatic chapter of Iceland’s volcanic interior.

7

Scenic return

From the highlands back to the lowlands

Relax after the adventure as the route leaves the remote interior and follows a final sequence of lava fields, mountain views and changing Icelandic light towards the confirmed drop-off point.
