    8 DAYS – ICELANDIC IMPRESSIONS

    Natural beauty is not always on the side of the main road, which is why on this tour we also walk away from the much-visited highlights of Iceland. A diverse tour with sightseeing, nature experiences “on foot” and by minibus. A journey in the spirit of slow travel.
    More time to linger, exchange ideas with locals and immerse yourself in foreign places. We visit the beautiful Vatnsnes peninsula with its seal colonies, the forested, huge lava field near Húsafell, Europe’s most productive hot water spring “Deildartunguhver”, the magical waterfall “Hraunfossar” and the world heritage site, the Þingvellir National Park. The Reykjanes Peninsula has often been in the media for various volcanic eruptions and is otherwise often “overlooked”, but offers the opportunity to see hot springs and view breathtaking landscapes created by volcanic eruptions and geothermal energy. Reykjanesbær is located in the UNESCO Global Geopark.

    Brekkulækur – Vatnsnes peninsula
    What’s nicer than being woken up by bird songs? The morning is free and in the afternoon we go on a trip to the beautiful Vatnsnes peninsula, with short hikes. A unique coastal landscape and encounters with seals await us there. On the way back to Brekkulækur we visit the beautiful Kolugil gorge. (F,M,A)
    Hike in the highlands
    Hike from Húkur farm over the Hrútafjarðarháls, a foothills of the highlands and an extensive wetland with many lakes. From here you have a beautiful view and families of whooper swans and loons on the lakes. “Pick up” on the main road and continue to Hvammstangi, where we enjoy the naturally hot water in a typical Icelandic outdoor swimming pool. (F,P,A)
    Brekkulækur – Borgarfjördur
    We drive to the beautiful Borgarfjörður, climb the Grábrok crater and visit the Glanni waterfall. Continue to Borgarnes and visit the land acquisition center there, which is worth seeing. Here you have the opportunity to have a delicious lunch snack, visit the souvenir shop and the exhibition (optional). Refreshed, we continue to the largest hot water spring in Europe: Deildartunguhver. Overnight stay at the country hotel Hótel Á. (F,A)
    Hraunfossar – Húsafell
    Today we first take a trip to the Hraunfossar nature reserve with its beautiful waterfalls. We look around the historically interesting Húsafell farm. Then a drive across the beautiful highlands to the Surtshellir lava cave, which was made famous by outlaws in the Middle Ages. Further stops at a special spring and a petrified resident of the area. (F,A)
    Hvalfjörður – Thingvellir – Reykjanes
    Over the Dragháls pass to Hvalfjord. Onward over the Kjósarskarð pass to Þingvellir National Park, short hike. Pick up and drive on to Keflavik. Overnight stay in the guesthouse where we stay for 2 nights. (F)
    Keflavik – Reykjanes
    Reykjanes is a volcanically active area and has experienced 5 eruptions in the last 4 years. A hike in the volcanic area can arise from the current situation, which we will of course take advantage of. But we can certainly take a look at the fresh lava from a safe distance. Visit to the Gunnuhver mud springs and the Brimketill lava coast on the Reykjanes peninsula. Overnight stay in our guest house again. (F)
    End of program/Departure
    Early morning transfer to the airport (departure from the guesthouse at 5:00 a.m.). Farewell to Iceland.
