The ATV Reykjavik Adventure & View

Join us for the ATV Reykjavik Adventure, where we take you deep into the wilderness surrounding the city. Our journey leads through hidden, long-forgotten valleys and up to the peaks of the Reykjavik hills. From the top, riders can enjoy a magnificent view over the rift valley volcanoes and the Great Capital Area of Reykjavík—the "Smoky Bay."

Keep your eyes open! We often spot Icelandic horses or sheep wandering close to the track. Depending on conditions, we will make stops at several scenic locations to take photos and share insights about the local area and Icelandic nature.

  • Duration: Approximately 2 hours riding time (3 hours total with pickup and drop-off).
  • Group Size: Maximum of 8 people (bookable online). Large groups of up to 20 are available by special request.

Pickup & Location:We offer pickup from most hotels in the Reykjavik area. Please note that the City of Reykjavik has established non-pickup zones in the downtown area to reduce traffic. If you are staying downtown, we will pick you up from the nearest designated Tourist Bus Stop.

  • ATV Reykjavik Adventure and View – 2 Hour

    The ATV Reykjavik Adventure and View takes you to the beautiful Lake Hafravatn and up to the Reykjavik Peak for a magnificent view over the capital area and neighboring towns.

    Before we head up the mountain, we enjoy a scenic ride where we often spot Icelandic horses and stop for photos. On a clear day, you might see the lava fields near Hafnarfjörður, and if we are lucky, the Snæfellsjökull Glacier in the distance. You will also have a view of the mountains on the Reykjanes Peninsula that have been active and erupting in recent years.

    Tour Details:

    • Duration: 2 hours riding time (approx. 3.5 hours with pickup/drop-off).

    • Requirements: All drivers must hold a fully valid driving license.
