The Reykjanes Geopark is located on a peninsula divided between two continents. This unique placement of the Reykjanes Peninsula on the drift zone between the North American and the Eurasian continental plates makes it a true Volcanic Wonder.

We start the day by exploring one of the most iconic features of the Icelandic volcanic landscape, the boiling mud pools of Seltún, and the steaming colorful surrounding landscape.

As we drive along the Reykjanes peninsula, you are constantly in the presence of the roaring Atlantic Ocean, endless lava fields, and volcanic craters. An alien landscape, decorated by windblown palagonite and petrified troll formations.

Next up in our adventure is the youngest volcano in Iceland, Fagradalsfjall Volcano, and the surrounding lava fields. The hike up to the craters takes about 40 minutes, where you will be able to explore the devastating yet beautiful aftermath of this recent volcanic eruption.

After the volcano hike, we stop by the bridge between continents, where you can walk between the continental plates that divide the peninsula. This stop underlines this unique placement directly on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

On our way back to Reykjavík, we stop by the largest mud pool in Iceland, Gunnuhver. You can feel the ground shake from the enormous power released from the boiling water and steam released.

After an active exciting day at the eruption site, we will head back to Reykjavik and relax in the geothermal waters at the Sky Lagoon.

The Sky Lagoon is all about rejuvenation and relaxation by the dramatic North Atlantic Ocean. A thermal spa inspired by nature and the bathing culture Icelanders have been enjoying for years. Included in your tour is the 7-step spa ritual at the Sky Lagoon, truly a unique journey to top off your active day.
