About this experience
Enjoy yourself in Iceland's rugged nature with this hiking adventure in the Þórsmörk Mountain Reserve.
The exact itinerary depends on the day's conditions but typically includes driving into the valley,crossing glacier rivers and then
hike for about 2-4 hours. On the way back from the valley, we take a few short stops that might include waterfalls, canyons or an outlet glacier.

We will see a part of Eyjafjallajökull on the drive in to Þórsmörk. An outlet glacier named Gígjökull. If the clouds allow, we will see more of the glacier and the other two glaciers surrounding Þórsmörk, during the hike.

We pass by this site on the way to our starting point of the hike, but we make a short stop there on the way back for some pictures and a short walk through the canyon.
- Tour stop
Seljalandsfoss is one of Iceland's most popular waterfall, we usually just drive past it on the way to Þórsmörk but if the group wants, we can take a short stop on the way back from our tour.
