Visit Lake Mývatn, Dettifoss Waterfall, Ásbyrgi Canyon and Húsavík
First stop is by Goðafoss Waterfall and from there to Lake Mývatn area and stop at Hverir, boiling mud pits, by Mt. Námafjall. That area is considered by many the most beautiful and at the same time the most catastrophic place in Iceland. We will take a short stop in Víti crater near Krafla Volcano.
Next stop is by Déttifosse Waterfall, which stands at 45m high and 100m wide, where a mass of water, mud and sand rumbles into Iceland’s most impressive canyon.
After Dettifoss we travel alongside the Jökulsárgljúfur glacial canyon to Vesturdalur valley and to Hljóðaklettar, the echoing cliffs. They are world known for their basalt columns that characterize the ancient crater remains.
Next we come down to the imposing horseshoe-shaped canyon Ásbyrgi, surrounded by precipitous cliffs. This place is known to be the meeting place of the pagan Gods.
We then take our time to stop at a café when we drive through Húsavík village on our way back to Akureyri.
This tour includes comfortable transportation in a minibus, a complimentary pickup service, and an English-speaking guide to enhance your experience.

Selfoss is a waterfall in the river Jökulsá á Fjöllum in the North of Iceland. The river drops over a number of waterfalls over about 30 km before flowing into Öxarfjörður, a bay of the Arctic Sea.
These extraordinary rock formations, some of them standing in the middle of Jökulsá á Fjöllum glacial river, are the remains of an ancient row of craters that have been eroded for centuries after centuries by the strong currents and floods of the river.
Rauðhólar scoria cone and Hljóðaklettar are a part of a long row of craters, which erupted approximately 9,000 years ago.
Only the volcanic plugs are now remaining, but a catastrophic flood in the glacial river 2,500-3,000 years washed the volcanic material away.
