Itinerary

1. The hidden gem Sigöldugljúfur, sometimes called the Valley of Tears, is on our way to Landmannalaugar. It is most renowned for and earned its nickname from its sheer number of waterfalls. Sigöldugljúfur is a fantasy-like space and is renowned for its many waterfalls; vividly blue water; abundant vegetation; lava landscapes; and its incredible surroundings. Though by no means as large as other canyons in Iceland, it has still garnered attention for its unique, oasis-like beauty.

2. Landmannalaugar is a beautiful region in the remote highlands of Iceland and is known globally for its spectacular scenery and hiking trails. Featuring amazing and colorful rhyolite mountains, hot springs, blue lakes, and so many different geological formations, this bubbling geothermal wonderland will leave you speechless. The drive through the highland until we reach Landmannalaugar is a adventure you don’t want to miss. People travel the globe to hike the stunning trails of Landmannalaguar, particularly the famous Laugavegur trail, which starts here. On our 1,5 hour hike we will see hot springs in the edge of a lava field with Brennisteinsalda mountain, so colorful almost leaning over us. After the hike we will end our day relaxing soak in the natural hot pool.

About Reykjavik

Reykjavik is the northernmost capital of any nation, a colourful, compact city of art and music that opens onto Iceland's volcanic landscapes.

The landmark Hallgrímskirkja church, its tower inspired by basalt columns, rises above streets of brightly painted houses. Down by the harbour, the glass-fronted Harpa concert hall shimmers on the water, and the Sun Voyager sculpture faces the sea toward Mount Esja. Laugavegur, the main shopping street, is lined with design shops, cafés and bars.

Top-ranked sights in Reykjavik: Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, Harpa.
