Inclus

Itinéraire

1. Your YFIR guide meets you at your hotel lobby, or outside your accommodation if lobby access is not available. Departs 08:00.

   15 min

2. A brief stop on a peninsula above Borgarfjordur. Fjord views, fresh air, and a moment to stretch before the route heads inland. Your guide sets the scene for West Iceland's geology and history.

   15 min

3. Europe's most powerful natural hot spring — 180 litres of water at 97°C surge from the earth every second. Flat, paved path. Your guide explains Iceland's geothermal energy system and how this spring supplies two towns over 70 kilometres away.

   25 min

4. Home of 13th-century scholar Snorri Sturluson, who wrote the Prose Edda and Heimskringla — the texts that preserved Norse mythology and Viking Age history for the world. His natural hot pool, Snorralaug, still exists and still fills with geothermal water. Your guide tells the full story.

   25 min

5. Hundreds of springs emerge silently from the edge of a 900-year-old lava field and cascade into the Hvita river — with no visible source above ground. Adjacent Barnafoss carries a Viking Age legend your guide will tell in full. Both are free to enter. Café on site.

   35 min

6. A quiet glacier-view village at the foot of Langjokull. Your guide covers the glaciology and context of Langjokull before the ascent. Safety briefing and equipment fitting take place at the staging area before the monster truck departs.

   10 min

7. Modified monster trucks built for glacier terrain ascend Langjokull from the Husafell staging area — approximately 45 minutes each way with open highland views. At the top, snowmobiles are ready and waiting. One hour of guided open-ice snowmobiling at altitude — wind, ice, and panoramic views across the West Iceland highlands. Helmet, snowmobile suit, and goggles provided at the staging area. Full safety briefing given before departure. No prior experience required. Valid driving licence required to operate independently; passengers ride without one.

   3 hEntrée incluse

8. Return drive through West Iceland. Estimated arrival back in Reykjavik approximately 19:30.

About Reykjavik

Reykjavik, la capitale la plus au nord du monde, ville colorée d'art et de musique ouverte sur les paysages volcaniques islandais.

L'église Hallgrímskirkja, dont la tour s'inspire des orgues basaltiques, s'élève au-dessus de rues de maisons aux couleurs vives. Près du port, la salle de concert Harpa, aux façades de verre, miroite sur l'eau, et la sculpture Sun Voyager fait face à la mer en direction du mont Esja. Laugavegur, la principale rue commerçante, est bordée de boutiques de design, de cafés et de bars.

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