Itinerary

  • Reykjanes (Pass By)

    Venturing on the journey to the Fagradalsfjall Volcano involves a mesmerizing drive through the heart of the Reykjanes Peninsula, recognized as a UNESCO Global Geopark. Renowned for its otherworldly charm, has been likened to lunar landscapes or even the terrain of Mars due to its captivating lava fields that uniquely shape the horizon. Undertaking this stunning peninsula, you'll witness a vista blanketed in semi-fluid rock formations and dominated by imposing volcanic ridges, lending a genuinely extraterrestrial feel to your adventure. It's a setting that underscores the beauty and power of Iceland's geologic heart, adding a new dimension to your trip to Fagradalsfjall Volcano.

    The Fagradalsfjall Volcano Hike is a crowd-pleaser, favoured by all, from spry seniors with average fitness to adventurous families looking to immerse their children in nature's grandeur. Depending on your pace, this excursion can last 3 to 4 hours, and experienced hikers may find it even quicker. Each way, the hike usually ranges between 30-45 minutes, depending on individual speed and endurance, and traverses an elevation of about 300 meters (approximately 984 ft) and 8 km (around 4.9 miles). We equip you with walking poles for stability and crampons for winter conditions. ⚠️ Your safety and enjoyment are important to us, so please be aware that our guide may modify the tour and path to accommodate the weather, your pace, and your stamina. ⚠️We might weave a detour through the lava fields for an off-the-beaten-path experience, time and conditions permitting. ‼️ Please note that this is not a tour of an active eruption.

Holy Lava Field!

Published on Feb, 2025

Our guide, Oddi, was very informative and provided us with an incredible day. The steam vents were amazing. It was a misty day so the stems vents were very easy to see. Great day!

Once in a lifetime adventure!

Published on Feb, 2025

Oddi was amazing! He was a fabulous guide and shared many stories and history with us about the island. The scenery was amazing but I will never forget walking on the lava from the 2021 eruption. Simply amazing!

Incredible views and personalized tour

Published on Feb, 2025

Ollie was an amazing guide who took the time to explain the rich history of the landscape and country. Would highly recommend the private tour - it was wonderful to go at our own pace and not feel rushed, plus we were able to walk on the lava with our certified guide.

Other worldly!

Published on Feb, 2025

Loved this experience! Like being on another planet. Our guide Haffi was amazing and we learned so much about the area! Would highly suggest!

Fantastic! Highly recommended.

Published on Feb, 2025

This tour was great! Oddi did an amazing job customizing the tour for my 18 yr old nephew wanting a challenge and my 70 yr old father, fit, but not as young as he once was. My nephew got to walk on lava, while remaining safe with the very experienced guide. They also got some extra treats, which were well received. I also appreciate that I was able to book it last minute after our other booking was canceled. Great service.
