Landmannalaugar- Hekla: The Volcano Day Tour

Warm and wonderful, cold and colorful but most of all enjoyable. On this Iceland Private Super Jeep day tour you will touch new lava, see some strange earth colors, take a warm bath in natural geothermal pool and perhaps explore an icecave in the middle of Iceland´s central south highlands.

Our tour starts by driving east out of Reykjavik through green country side before entering the rough mountain tracks by the foothills of the famous volcano Hekla.  The landscape is shaped by centuries of volcanic activity, the most recent eruption in February 2000. We drive a mountain track in the valley of Domadalur before we, powered by the Super Jeep, climb with us up to around 1000m above sea level where we enjoy a spectacular view of the Torfajokull glacier area, which is the largest high-temparature geothermal area in Iceland.  Weather permitting we have a panorama of 8 glaciers.  Under and around the icecap of Hrafntinnusker there is great number of hot springs constantly shaping the environment; melting snow, making icecaves and supplying water to the glacial rivers. Many different eruptions and the geothermal heat as made all kinds of strange lava formations and colors. This is a deserted land of awsome beauty. We then lower again and take a moment to relax and let it all sink in while enjoying a bath in warm natural pool in Landmannalaugar. On the way back we take a look at the explosion crater Ljótipollur before heading back to Reykjavik. Once in Reykjavik we will drop you off at your hotel or a restaurant of your choice.

Join us on an great geological exploration where the hot and cold meet in a great array of colors and beauty in one magnificient day tour – and do it in style and comfort of your own private Super Jeep.
