Description

This compact adventure makes the raw beauty of Reykjanes wonderfully accessible. From the volcano parking area, a modified Super Jeep carries you over rugged tracks towards landscapes created by Iceland’s most recent eruptions.

Three carefully chosen stops reveal different views across young lava, distant craters and the vast terrain around Fagradalsfjall and Sundhnúkagígar. The vehicle, terrain and stories from the guide make the journey every bit as memorable as the viewpoints.

It is ideal for travellers who want a genuine volcano experience but prefer to avoid the two-to-three-hour hike normally required to reach the area on foot.
