Description:

Take a day off from city life and escape to the inner highlands and geothermal area of Landmannalaugar. Uncover the natural beauty of Iceland's countryside. Admire dramatic waterfalls, bathe in natural springs, and hike around the surrounding volcanic mountains for a truly awe-inspiring day out.

Your tour begins with a scenic drive through the southern landscape into Þjórsárdalur Valley, home to the Hjálparfoss waterfall. Admire the rushing waters of the double waterfall that merge at its base into a large plunge pool. You then arrive at the popular tourist destination Landmannalauger, often referred to as “The Pearl of the Central Highlands” thanks to the multicolored rhyolite mountains and expansive lava fields. Be amazed by dramatic lighting and the array of pinks, browns, greens, yellows, blues, and whites—the colorful rocks that make this area so breathtaking.

For an incredible Icelandic experience, take a dip in a warm pool formed by a blend of nearby hot and cold springs. Sit back, take a break, and gaze at the overwhelming beauty of the country's natural phenomena. Alternatively, take a leisurely trek along the volcanic trails.

As you make your way back to the city, pass by Hellisheiði and see Mt. Hekla, Iceland's most infamous and active volcano, which was once thought to be the gateway to hell. The formidable volcano has erupted several times, and it still erupts nearly every 10 years, leaving a thick sheet of ash and pumice over the landscape.
