The experience

About this tour

Join us on an unforgettable Þórsmörk day tour, where rugged landscapes, glacial rivers, and breathtaking trails await. This Þórsmörk Super Jeep adventure takes you deep into the Þórsmörk Valley, one of Iceland’s most stunning and remote nature reserves. With towering glaciers, volcanoes, and lush green canyons, this is a place where Iceland’s wild beauty comes to life.

The Journey to Þórsmörk

Departing from Lava Center in Hvolsvöllur, your expert local guide will take you on a thrilling off-road adventure. Our Super Jeep is designed to handle Iceland’s challenging terrain, allows us to cross glacial rivers, drive through volcanic landscapes, and reach hidden gems that regular vehicles simply cannot access. The drive itself is an adventure as we navigate the famous F-roads of Iceland, with stunning views of Eyjafjallajökull Glacier, Mýrdalsjökull, and the brave Krossá River.

Discover the best spots in Þórsmörk Super Jeep tour

Along the way, we’ll make several breathtaken stops, like:

  • Merkurker – A hidden canyon known for its dramatic rock formations.
  • Gígjökull Glacier – A striking reminder of the 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruption, where you can see how glacial floods reshaped the valley.
  • Stakkholtsgjá Canyon – A mesmerizing canyon with towering cliffs and a hidden waterfall at the end.
  • Básar Campsite – A beloved hiking base in Þórsmörk, surrounded by dramatic mountain peaks and birch forests. A perfect spot to soak in the scenery and enjoy a light lunch.
  • Álfakirkja – A mystical rock formation steeped in Icelandic folklore, said to be the church of the Icelandic elves.

Hike in Þórsmörk

Once we arrive in the heart of Þórsmörk Valley, your guide will lead you on a scenic hike suited to the group’s ability and the day’s conditions. Whether you take an easy walk through lush birch forests or a more challenging hike for panoramic views, every route promises breathtaking scenery.

After an incredible day exploring Iceland’s highlands, we’ll begin our journey back, leaving you with unforgettable memories of Þórsmörk’s wild beauty.
