The tour features Þórsmörk (i.e. Thors Woodland), a famous nature reserve shielded on three sides by glaciers and mountains!

We begin this tour by driving over the mountain Hellisheiði towards Selfoss. We visit Seljalandsfoss waterfall and walk into the rugged gorge of Stakkholtsgjá. Our main attraction is Þórsmörk (i.e. Thors Woodland), a nature reserve shielded on three sides by glaciers and mountains.

There are a multitude of small gullies and valleys, clad with low birch-trees that create seemingly endless  possibilities for the nature lover. The glacial melt-off forms rivers that have to be crossed on the way to Þórsmörk and some days the crossing is quite challenging or even impossible. An small sream can change in a matter of hours into a thunderous torrent.

Our skilled drivers are very experienced in these driving conditions and will take you safely across the river. This trip is truly unforgettable for the nature lover and an ideal hiking trip. During some winter months, it might not be possible to access Þórsmörk. Then we will visit Vík village and the magnificent Skógarfoss waterfall.

Please note that we will not be visiting Þórsmörk from October 1 2008 through April 30 2009. Instead we will be visiting Vík village and the magnificent Skógarfoss waterfall.
