Description
Pair a thrilling snowmobile ride across Langjökull with a restorative soak in the naturally warm Secret Lagoon.
This full-day adventure from Reykjavík takes you by Super Jeep towards Iceland's second-largest glacier. After gearing up and learning the controls, share a snowmobile for a guided one-hour ride across the open snowfields, with a pause for photos along the way.
Back in the lowlands, the pace changes completely at Secret Lagoon in Flúðir. Entry and a towel are included, giving you time to unwind in 38–40°C geothermal water before the return to Reykjavík.
