Tour Highlights

At the scheduled time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Reykjavík and head towards the Kerlingarföll Highlands—a must-see destination in Iceland.

On our way to the highlands, we'll stop at Gullfoss, a waterfall located on the canyon of the Hvitá River. Once at the Highland Base, we'll prepare for an exciting hike. Nestled in the Ásgarður Calley, right on the edge of Kerlingarfjöll, Highland Base sets the stage for our adventure. Our journey takes us to Hveradalir, continuing for an additional 2 kilometers (1.25 miles).

Hveradalir, meaning "the valley of hot springs," is one of Iceland's largest geothermal valleys. The powerful natural hot springs should be observed from a safe distance, surrounded by picturesque rhyolite mountains that form part of the Kerlingarfjöll mountain range.

We'll embark on a trekking route of 2 kilometers (1.25 miles) with a 500-meter (1,640-foot) elevation gain. After the walk, you'll have time to eat at a restaurant or enjoy your packed food. Then, we'll head to the Highland Baths for a dip in the thermal waters in the Highlands of Kerlingarfjöll.

After a full day of hiking and adventure, we will return to Reykjavik. On the way back, we'll stop at Geysir, one of the most stunning geysers in the world. Finally, we'll arrive at your hotel 12 hours after pickup.
