Northern Lights the Viking way – ATV Reykjavik Adventure

Northern Lights the Viking way – ATV Reykjavik Adventure

The Experience: Join us for a unique "once-in-a-lifetime" adventure: hunting for the Northern Lights on an ATV! This 90-minute night tour takes you away from the city lights into the darkness surrounding Lake Hafravatn and Mount Hafrafell.

Far from the glow of the capital, you will feel like you are worlds away, yet we are only 15 minutes from Reykjavík. On a clear night, we stop to gaze at the stars and look for shooting stars—and if luck is on our side, we will witness the dancing Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) shimmering over the city and the mountains. Even if the lights are shy, driving an ATV through the dark with only your headlights to guide the way is a thrilling adventure in itself.

Why Book Early? We highly recommend booking this tour for one of your first nights in Iceland. This gives you the flexibility to reschedule to a later date if the weather or cloud cover is not favorable on your first attempt.
