Borgarfjörður eystri: Víknaslóðir Wilderness E-Bike Tour
Immerse yourself in the wilderness and discover history on this easy yet exciting E-Bike Tour of the Víknaslóðir Wilderness
In this tour, we follow an F-road into Afrétt, where the sheep roam wild and the reindeer ramble. This track takes us literally off the grid. Unplug from your feed and experience the profound quiet of the Icelandic landscape. Discover a world of different colours when you ride along the trail, which meanders through valleys of glacially carved rhyolite, similar to the famous Landmannalaugar landscape. When we crest the first hill we take a small detour to take a look at the famous and colourful Mt. Hvítserkur, one of the oldest mountains in Iceland.
As we descend through valleys decorated with the silver threads of endless waterfalls, we come upon a wide open black sand beach, peppered with colourful rhyolite pebbles. Our final ascent takes us up to a height of 500 meters, where, weather permitting, we receive breathtaking panoramic views of the Víknaslóðir Wilderness, Borgarfjörður eystri, mountains, valleys and sea.
