Itinerary

Landmannalaugar

We will Pick up in Reykjavik and the South coast, and drive to the roots of Hekla Iceland´s most active volcano where we drive through the lava fields before landing in Landmannalaugar. In Landmannalaugar we stop for three hours which gives plenty of time for a hike, (there are various options available depending on form ) and time to take a dip in the natural pool there before heading back.

Volcano Hekla

Hekla is located in one of the most active volcanoes in Iceland with more than 20 eruptions since 874. The volcano is part of a volcanic ridge, 40 km long. The most active part of this ridge is a fissure about 5.5 km long named Heklugja which lies under the volcano itself. There are many craters at the peak, two of which are known to erupt more than the others. Approximately 10 percent of Iceland’s landmass was brought up by lava from Hekla. Hekla is believed to be overdue and geologists in Iceland keep a close eye on the volcano. There are many monitors placed on the mountain, which measure any geological changes. The last time the Hekla volcano erupted they could see it beforehand and give people in the area a half-an-hour notice before the eruption started. one of the most notorious things about Hekla is its unpredictability, sometimes exploding within a decade of its last eruption, sometimes laying dormant for nearly a century.

10 minutes
Fjallabak Nature Reserve

Fjallabak nature reserve is named after the numerous wild and rugged rhyolite mountains with deeply incised valleys in Fjallabak. The topography of the Torfajökull, volcano is found in the southern part of the Fjallabak Nature Reserve, a result of the region being the largest rhyolite area in Iceland and the second largest geothermal area. The hot pools at Landmannalaugar are one of many manifestations of geothermal activity in the area, which also tends to alter the minerals in the rocks, causing beautiful color variations from red and yellow to blue and green, a good example being the pink color in Brennisteinsalda and the blue color of Blánhúkur. Because of the cold climate in the Nature Reserve, the vegetation’s growing period is only about two months every year making this a very desert landscape.

Enjoyed the hike and the 4x4 ride, although it was raining. Our guide was helpful. We got stuck in the ice but our guide was able to resolve it. Would definitely recommend this tour if you enjoy hiking and venturing in the landscape.
