- Volcano Hekla - Hekla is one of Iceland’s most active volcanoes. She is going to be visible to us for the first few hours of our day. In the middle ages, Hekla got the nickname “The gateway to Hell” - Bláhylur - Bláhylur / Hnausapollur is a crater lake formed in a immense eruption in 871, just before the settlement of Iceland. Bláhylur got it’s name from the deep blue color of it’s water. The striking contrast of the blue water against darker browns, greens and grey’s, forms a landscape of incredible beauty. - Landmannalaugar - Landmannalaugar is one of the most visited places in the highlands of Iceland. The colorful rhyolite mountains, a rock type that creates a spectrum of amazing colors. A raven black lava field of Laugahraun and the endless options of beautiful hiking trails, combined with a after hike soak in the hot natural pool makes Landmannalaugar a unreal place to visit. - Hjalparfoss - A double waterfall surrounded by basalt formations. The name Hjálparfoss, means Helper’s falls. It came to be when crossing Iceland on horses was more common, and the horses could finally get green grass and fresh water, not glacial water. Remaining time is for the traveling time and weather in Iceland is unpredictable and we might change our schedule accordingly.

Originally, those who stopped at Landmannalaugar, were settlers crossing the barren highlands of Iceland, but today, mostly tourists after an exciting day.
On the way to and from Landmannalaugar, we will stop at a few places to stretch our legs and take in the beauty of the more remote places Iceland has to offer. (a few sights listed down below.) And some we see from a distance during our drive.
When we arrive in Landmannalaugar, we will have a option of some light/moderate hiking, soak in the hot spring, or both. At least everyone gets enough time to enjoy the area.
