Into the Highlands: Private Landmannalaugar Adventure
Discover Iceland’s colorful highlands on a private adventure to Landmannalaugar. Walk through lava fields, soak in a natural hot spring, and enjoy a BBQ lunch in the wild.
Venture deep into the heart of Iceland on this private day tour to Landmannalaugar—where lava meets legend, and colorful mountains rise from black sand plains.
Your journey begins as we leave Reykjavík behind and head east toward Iceland’s untamed interior. Along the way, we travel past volcanoes and farmlands until the road disappears and the adventure truly begins—cutting through remote lava fields near Mt. Hekla, one of Iceland’s most active and iconic volcanoes.
Driving into the highlands, we make stops at some of the region’s most jaw-dropping hidden gems, like the surreal Sigöldugljúfur canyon, known for its vibrant blue waters and lush green cliffs, and the deep crater lake of Ljótipollur, glowing with volcanic color.
Then we reach the day’s main destination: Landmannalaugar, a geothermal wonderland surrounded by multi-colored rhyolite mountains, steaming vents, and lava flows. Here, you’ll have time to explore the area with light walking, soak in the natural hot spring, or simply relax and take in the unbelievable views.
To make the moment even more memorable, your guide will fire up the BBQ and serve a freshly grilled lunch in the wild—no tourist crowds, no rush. Just pure Icelandic nature, up close and personal.
This is the Highlands at their finest—raw, remote, and unforgettable.
