  • Itinerary

Welcome to our exciting and adventurous bike day tour! Join us as we  take you on a journey through some of our favorite biking spots, where  we spend our days off exploring the great outdoors. Depending on weather  and terrain conditions, we’ll select the perfect route for you. Our  possible areas of exploration include our local forest Tumastaðaskógur  and the hidden backyard around Mt. Þríhyrningur. No matter which route  we choose, you can expect a fun-filled and thrilling day in a stunning  setting.

All of our tours start at Midgard Base Camp, where you can test out  our bikes before setting off on your adventure. We’ll transport the  bikes to the start of the tour, which is usually around 10-15 km away.  You follow us in your own car or hop on a ride with us (if space is  available).

Tumastaðaskógur is a fun biking playground. It has gravel roads and  double and single trails. We’ll even take you to the local well where  old farmers used to drink and become 100 years of age. We drink from it  too, not only to gain energy for the trip but also to stay forever  young.

On our way to the hidden backyard around Mt. Þríhyrningur, we’ll pass  by Vatnsdalur – a remote farm that’s still standing and where our  friend Elli, who’s over 90 years old, still lives. Then, we’ll cross the  Fiská river by car and start biking along the sides of Mt.  Þríhyrningur, exploring hidden caves and waterfalls along the way.
