LEAVE REYKJAVÍK IN YOUR REARVIEW MIRRORS AND DIVE DEEPER INTO THE MYSTICAL LANDSCAPE – RAW WILDERNESS, CAVING, AND PRISTINE LAKES AWAIT

Veer off the beaten path and join us for a full day ATV adventure of adrenaline-pumping action cutting through the Icelandic landscape. It’s just you and the trails (and a guide of course)! We’ll take you to the places that most of us locals like to keep secret. As long as you promise to keep these gems to yourself! 

BEGIN IN REYKJAVÍK – EARN YOUR WAY TO END IN LUSH ICELANDIC PARADISE

Our team at Safari Quads have been relentless in selecting the best full day route (6-7 hours) for our guests allowing us to take you even further into our natural playground. This trip comes in response to our guest’s enthusiasm for longer trips that travel a greater distance reaching outside of the expected tourism territory but limited to one day. The Volcano & Lava Adventure Tour is a perfect and unique opportunity to see as much raw nature as possible.

CONQUER THE BLUE MOUNTAINS ABOVE, EXPLORE ONE OF THE ICELANDIC LAVA FIELDS

The day will begin with a pickup in your hotel lobby by your cunning and occasionally humourous Safari Quads Guide. You’ll like him, we promise! We’ll drive you to our base camp located just 15 minutes outside of Reykjavík to begin gearing up and receive your safety briefing for the coming day of adventure! We’ll waste no time by beginning the tour by driving all the way to Hengill mountain range. After the first stop at a geothermal pool, you will reach your lunch destination. From there your guide takes you into the iconic blue mountains and the Reykjanes Peninsula.

FAR FROM CIVILIZATION, FEEL AND SEE THE POWER OF THE VOLCANIC ISLAND  

The tour starts with an adventurous ride in the backlands of Reykjavik all the way to Hengill mountain range and Hellisheiðarvirkjun, the power plant for Reykjavik. You follow the trails into the mountain range to a valley called Instidalur. There we have a little surprise for you. A secret hot spring is waiting for you. After your Lunchbreak in a cozy little restaurant, you will head to the iconic blue mountains. The trail leads you through dirt tracks and old trails surrounded by huge mountains and inactive volcanoes. The next stop will be at Helgafell in the middle of Skúlatúnshraun. But the fun is not over yet. After a short break, you head out to explore the lava field. You will see spectacular lava formations and with a little bit of luck some of the „hidden people“ of Iceland.

ATV tracks are dependent on weather and trail conditions.
