Landmannalaugar to Reykjavík Highland Bus
Feel free to contact us
Description
Complete your Landmannalaugar adventure with a beautiful one-way journey back to Reykjavík. The Highland Bus leaves the colourful rhyolite mountains behind and follows remote mountain roads through Fjallabak before descending into the fertile landscapes of South Iceland.
This scheduled connection is ideal after a day hike, a geothermal soak or the final stage of the Laugavegur trail. Instead of navigating F-roads yourself, settle into the ride and watch lava fields, open valleys and the realm of Hekla unfold beyond the windows.
Stops along the seasonal route connect with several South Iceland locations before the bus reaches Reykjavík. The simple point-to-point format gives independent travellers the freedom to build their own Highland itinerary while securing a reliable route back to the capital.
Reserve the return leg before you set out and enjoy one last sweep of wild Icelandic scenery on the road from Landmannalaugar.
