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 Dettifoss 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.

Goðafoss Waterfall is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Iceland. Nicknamed the Waterfall of the Gods due to its history. In the year 1000, Þorgeir Ljósvetningagoði made Christianity the official religion of Iceland and proceeded with throwing his statues of gods into the waterfall.

The water falls from a height of 12 meters over a width of 30 meters.

We recommend bringing the following items for a comfortable and enjoyable experience:

  • Warm clothes to stay cozy in changing weather
  • Good hiking shoes for stability and comfort
  • Gloves to keep your hands warm
  • A water bottle to stay hydrated
  • Light snacks for an extra energy boost along the way

Being well-prepared will help you make the most of your adventure!
