Itinerary: 

Day 1: Highlands of Iceland.

Your journey to the Highlands of Iceland starts here. This trip will take you to the natural jewel of Iceland, the Landmannalaugar geothermal area.

Going towards the center of the Highlands we will pass the most active volcano in Iceland, Mount Hekla, and then explore the stunning crater lakes in the area, such as Ljótipollur (The Ugly Pond), and Frostastadavatn (lake of the frosty place).

Once we reach the center of the Highlands, you can choose whether to try one of the many beautiful hike trails or relax in the natural geothermal hot springs of Laundmannalaugar.

Before heading back to the hotel, we will make one more stop at a secret waterfall, þjofafoss.

Day 2: Thorsmork. 

The adventure continues as we head into the “Valley of Thor” Þórsmörk – crossing the rivers several times along the way.

We mark the first stop at Nauthusagil waterfall, a secluded but worthwhile highlight of the day before we drive further to the Stakkholtsgjá Canyon. Here, we can take a hike to explore the volcanic and glacial surroundings and check out the amazing views.

Next on the itinerary is the Basar, where we can enjoy the calm serenity of raw nature.

At the end of the day, we will return to the hotel to rest up for the following leg of the trip

Day 3: South Coast.

Skogafoss

Further west along the coast is Skógafoss waterfall. Skógafoss is an incredibly picturesque sight. Tucked in a little gorge, the river Skógá tumbles down a 60 meters cliff before continuing down the landscape towards the Atlantic Ocean. Alongside the gorge a staircase can take you to the shelf above the waterfall for stunning views. See if you can count your steps on your way up.

Seljalandsfoss

The adventure begins when your arrival is announced by the powerful theatrics of Seljalandsfoss. Bring a raincoat and you’ll be able to make the short hike behind the falls. The scene behind the fall and the trembling ground from the power of the falling water makes for an automatic Instagram blockbuster!

Reynisfjara, the Black Sand Beach

Heading further west, we visit the black sand beach of Reynisfjara where the massive waves of the Atlantic meet the unique basalt columns in the cliffs above the sand. Rock pillars in the water and the cliffs of Dýrhólaey are seen in the distance. This area of the south is also a paradise for bird lovers, as Puffins and dozens of other unique species nest on top of these cliffs in the summertime from June to August.
