Private Hiking Tour in the Landmannalaugar
Private Hiking Tour in the Landmannalaugar
This tour gives you the unique opportunity to discover another region of Iceland: The Icelandic Highlands. And we are doing so, by offering you an itinerary that provides a balance between gazing at beautiful landscapes and actively hiking through them.
The Icelandic Highlands are only open during the summer.
It is a vast, uninhabited desert in the middle of the island. This is the real Iceland, remote, and untouched.
To access this paradise, one must ride on rugged roads, this is why our tours are happening in a specially modified 4×4 LandCruiser, to drive you there in safety and comfort.
If this tour is focused on hiking, some sightseeing stops are also planned to enjoy the beauty of the highlands and take a few pictures.
At the end of the day, should you wish to, you can take a dip in a hot spring.
