We take off from Reykjavik airport and head to the famous Golden Circle route where the first fly-over is Þingvellir National Park known for the Alþingi, the site of Iceland's old parliament, allegedly the oldest running parliament. Onward we fly into Haukadalur geothermal valley further east, home to the famous hot spring area Geysir and close by Gullfoss waterfall. We head further southeast to our first landing stop in Þórsárdalur Valley where we will visit the third-highest waterfall in the country, Haifoss, with its 122m drop, and its lower neighbor, Granni. As we head towards Landmannalaugar, the second landing spot of the tour, we fly over the northeast part of Hekla's volcanic system and its wasteland which mixes with land shaped by large eruptions. At Landmannalaugar we fly over the Jökulgil valley, a landscape painted by colorful rhyolite mountains, black lava, and ash fields and mountains, winding glacial rivers, fumaroles, and moss. It's a breathtaking visual experience enhanced by the bird's eye view perspective from the helicopter. From Landmannalaugar we will take you over to the beautiful area of Þórsmörk a grown paradise in between glaciers and glacier outlets before reaching the famous Eyjafjallajökull glacier where we will make our final landing on this tour.
