Tour Details

Discover the breathtaking beauty of Iceland's highlands on this adventure, featuring the stunning Þjórsárdalur Valley, the captivating Hjálparfoss waterfall, and the striking Ljótipollur crater lake. Explore the vibrant landscapes and geothermal wonders of Landmannalaugar, renowned for its colorful mountains and natural hot springs.

Þjórsárdalur Valley

Our journey into the highlands begins with a passage through the breathtaking Þjórsárdalur Valley, named after the majestic Þjórsá River. This area presents a striking tableau of sandy lava fields, winding rivers, tranquil birch woods, and captivating rock formations, each element adding to the valley’s ethereal beauty. As we drive through this diverse landscape, you'll notice how the verdant woodlands blend seamlessly with the stark lava fields, creating a unique visual contrast that is quintessentially Icelandic.

Hjálparfoss Waterfall

Our initial pause brings us to Hjálparfoss (Help Waterfall), a picturesque cascade nestled amidst verdant surroundings. The twin falls of Hjálparfoss plunge into a serene pool, framed by basalt rock formations that add to its dramatic appeal. This spot offers a final glimpse of lush greenery before we immerse ourselves in the otherworldly terrain of the highlands. Take a moment to stretch your legs, breathe in the crisp air, and capture some photos of this enchanting location, where the water's soothing sounds create a perfect backdrop for reflection.

Ljótipollur Crater Lake

Our journey then leads us to the hidden gems of the highlands, beginning with the enigmatic Ljótipollur, or "Ugly Puddle" in translation. Despite its name, this water-filled explosion crater lake is anything but unattractive. Nestled amidst the rugged terrain, Ljótipollur offers a captivating blend of natural beauty and geological intrigue that is sure to leave a lasting impression. As we approach Ljótipollur, the first thing that strikes you is the vivid contrast between the crimson-hued crater walls and the deep blue waters of the lake. This geological marvel is the result of a volcanic eruption that occurred centuries ago, leaving behind a dramatic landscape that continues to captivate visitors to this day.

Nestled within the Fjallabak Nature Reserve, this area boasts a surreal landscape that has captivated hikers and nature enthusiasts for generations. As we step foot into Landmannalaugar, it's as if we've entered another world entirely. The landscape is a kaleidoscope of colors, with vibrant hues of red, orange, yellow, and green painting the rolling hills and craggy peaks. The ground beneath our feet is alive with the hiss of steam vents and the bubbling of hot springs, evidence of the geothermal activity that shapes this dynamic environment.
