This biking adventure is for outdoorsy types and involves cycling along a ghost road -- a road once used by traffic but now closed to vehicles and open only for non-motorized recreational use.

Gear up with a bike and set off towards the small village of Hnifsdalur -- home to only 250 people -- following one of Iceland's most scenic roads. It is famous for its enormous cliffs and steep mountains on one side and the roaring ocean on the other. It is perfect for anyone seeking fresh air, rugged landscape views, fjord scenery and the great outdoors.

You will pass the Bolungarvík Tunnel. Enjoy incredible views over the Westfjord's largest fjord, the Snæfjallaströnd mountain chain, and the Hornstrandir Nature Reserve. Pedal your way to the lighthouse before turning around, with stops along the way for rests and photographs.

Notes:

Due to Isafjordur's remoteness and the scarcity of professional guides, all guiding is handled by locals; some are not professional, but all have great experience in guiding and extensive knowledge of the area. This tour is only for the very physically active. It is three hours of cycling more than 15 miles with an elevation gain of 1,180 feet. The road is unpaved in places, and the surface is rough; the tall cliffs tend to slough rocks and gravel onto the right of way. Dress in layers. Wear a daypack, sunglasses, comfortable clothing, and shoes suitable for a bike ride. Bring a waterproof outer layer and bottled water. Minimum weight is 77 lbs. Minimum age is 12 years. This tour does not visit the town of Bolungarvik.
