Embark on an unforgettable journey through the rugged landscapes of North Iceland aboard our sturdy 4x4 rigid Super Jeeps. Departing from Akureyri, we venture off the beaten path to uncover the hidden treasures that await those who dare to explore beyond the common route.
Our first stop is the majestic Goðafoss, or "Waterfall of the Gods," a breathtaking cascade that holds a wealth of fascinating history. Take your time to soak in the beauty of this natural wonder as we delve into its intriguing past.
Continuing our adventure, we make our way to the enchanting Lake Mývatn, where Off-Road exploration awaits. Traverse the rugged terrain to reach the old Lúdentsborgir crater row, where panoramic views of Mývatn and its surroundings await*. Afterward, indulge in a delicious lunch or refreshing break at a local restaurant.
As we journey through remote heaths and valleys, we arrive at Bárðardalur valley, home to the powerful Skjálfandafljót River. Witness the awe-inspiring Aldeyjarfoss waterfall, where torrents of white water plunge dramatically into a ravine flanked by striking basalt columns.
Our adventure concludes with a scenic drive through the picturesque Vaglaskógur forest, adorned with birch trees and vibrant flowers. Pause for a brief photo stop by an old bridge, allowing you to immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature's symphony, with the sweet melody of birdsong and rustling leaves.
Join us as we journey off the beaten track, uncovering hidden gems and breathtaking vistas that will leave you with memories to cherish for a lifetime. Please note that itinerary may be subject to change based on weather conditions, ensuring your safety and enjoyment throughout the expedition.
