Indulge in a remarkable and unforgettable experience by spending a night in a secluded mountain cabin close to Reykjavik. The cabin's location in a picturesque and tranquil setting provides the perfect escape from city life, enabling visitors to immerse themselves in Iceland's serene and unspoiled nature. 

The adventure starts with our 4×4 vehicle picking you up from Reykjavik metropolitan area, and taking you towards Thingvellir National Park, where the oldest parliament in the world was founded.  From there, we gear up (helmets and lights) and take a wonderful tour to the underground world as we visit one of the Lava caves in the area.    Lava caves are nothing like limestone caves which you will experience on this tour.  

Following the lava cave experience, we embark on an exhilarating off-road journey, on Iceland's rugged landscapes.  Our journey concludes with an overnight stay at the mountain cabin, providing visitors with comfortable and cozy amenities to recharge after an exciting day of exploration. The cabin, though rustic and simple, offers a chance to savor a delicious mountain meal on a BBQ and breathtaking views of the mountains and either the midnight sun in summer or Northern Lights in winter. Sleeping in a mountain cabin close to Reykjavik offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature, and the experience is bound to create fond and everlasting memories

Iceland is home to a number of fascinating lava caves, formed by volcanic activity thousands of years ago. These caves are not only a natural wonder, but also provide an opportunity for adventurous visitors to explore the depths of Iceland’s rugged terrain. As you descend into the cave, you’ll be surrounded by striking rock formations nowhere to be found except in a lava cave. Our guide will lead you through the cave, ensuring your safety while providing insights into the cave’s history and geology. Spelunking in an Icelandic lava cave is an unforgettable adventure that combines excitement, education, and natural beauty all in one incredible experience.

Off-roading in Iceland is an unforgettable adventure that combines adrenaline-pumping excitement with the chance to explore the country’s unspoiled wilderness.

  • The Mountain Hut (sleepover)

    Immerse yourself in nature with a one-of-a-kind experience of sleeping in a mountain cabin in Iceland’s highlands. Despite its simplicity and rustic charm, the cabin offers comfortable amenities to rejuvenate after a day filled with adventure and exploration. Visitors can take in stunning views of the surrounding mountains during the day and marvel at the surreal beauty of the midnight sun during summer or Northern Lights in winter. A stay in the mountain cabin offers an opportunity to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life and reconnect with nature’s splendor in an unparalleled setting
