Immerse yourself in the forces of nature in the “Land of Ice and Fire”
Iceland offers some of the world’s most dramatic adventure travel experiences, from traversing vast ice fields on the Solheimajokull glacier in Southern Iceland, to exploring the volcanic landscapes of the remote Icelandic Highlands and Northern Iceland, and visiting Europe’s most powerful geothermal spring on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula.
If you’re starting your adventure in the capital Reykjavik, then an extended tour of the dramatic Golden Circle and its trio of natural wonders – Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss waterfall and Haukadalur’s geothermal valley – is unmissable.
Your Iceland adventure holiday can be at any time of year, as each new season transforms the landscape into a new adventurers’ playground. Summer brings the midnight sun and access to the remote interior, perfect for long hikes or exploring the unmade roads and tracks on a super jeep. Winter is the best time to chase the elusive northern lights, walk on ice fields, explore ice caves and snowmobile through the incredible Icelandic wilderness. And, in spring and autumn you’ll notice fewer visitors and the added drama of the ever-changing weather – plus, snowmelt in the spring makes Iceland’s waterfalls even more spectacular.
