This Super Jeep Adventure Explores the Stunning Beauty of the Fjallabak Nature Reserve.
Overview
Discover the hidden gems of Iceland's Fjallabak Nature Reserve with this off-the-beaten-track tour. Throw yourself into the remote volcanic wilderness, away from the crowds, and explore deep into one of Iceland's most beautiful areas.
Fjallabak is considered a treasure of the Icelandic highlands, offering a diverse color palette, breathtaking landforms, and a unique, yet delicate ecosystem. Its black volcanic desert wilderness and tranquil ambiance leave visitors spellbound.
With so much to explore in Fjallabak, each tour takes a different route, tailored to the best road and weather conditions of the day. Visit iconic landmarks like Mt. Mælifell, a majestic cone shaped volcano cloaked in vibrant green moss contrasted by the black volcanic ash that surrounds it, and Rauðibotn crater, home to a picturesque emerald green lake.
Other highlights include Álftavatn lake, teeming with birdlife, the striking Markafljótsgljúfur glacial river canyon, and the iconic Mt. Hekla, one of Iceland's most active volcanoes.
Book this tour if you want to go deep into the Icelandic Highlands, experience remote wilderness and go where most people don’t go!
