WE LAND FOR TWO STOP-OVER ALONG THE WAY
Go exploring – Nothing beats getting your feet on the ground and feel what Iceland is about.
This one is dedicated to Volcanos and eruptions of epic proportion – forces that broke 40 KM fissures into the earths surface and formed vulcanic calderas so big you can only fully appreciate them from the air. Come face to face with geothermal powers that formed Iceland 16 million years ago.
Come face to face with the mighty Hekla is one of Iceland’s most active volcanos over 20 eruptions have occurred in and around the volcano since 874. During the Middle Ages we Europeans called the volcano the “Gateway to Hell” – who knows.
Eldgjá is the largest volcanic canyon in the world, approx. 40 km long, 270 m deep and 600 m wide at its greatest. Imagine what sort of force was needed to rip this canyon of fire into the face of the earth. The ash-clouds of the eruption caused the following summer to be one of the coolest worldwide in 1500 years.
Located deep in the Highlands Strútslaug is one of the most remote geothermal pools in Iceland. Boiling hot geothermal springs meet cold water creeks. When the hot and cold water blend to form a natural hot-pot in the middle of nowhere a perfect place for a realxing bath is found.

Leaving towards the Skógá-River canyon with over 20 waterfalls we climb against Eyjafjallajökull to the volcanoes Móði and Magni formed during the 2010 eruption – they are surrounded by a small lavafiled.Descending back down to the Þórsmörk valley with its forest, canyons and glaciers we turn north to the big river canyon Markarfljótsgljúfur. Next stop is Hekla one of Iceland’s most active volcanoes. Tracking north we pass the Landmannalaugar geothermal area and carry on to the Lakagígar volcano with its’ 40 km long volcanic fissure from the year 1783 – here we see lots of nice volcanic creaters and lava
On to the site of one of the biggest bangs in the last 5000 years a massive volcanic fissure formed around the year 934 home to the majestic waterfalls Eldgjá and Ófærufoss.
Time for a stop at the Strútslaug geothermal pool – bring your swimwear – it is worth it!
After lifting off again we see the Torfajökull glacier a beautiful area with a lots’ of colourful mountains, glacier and the biggest volcanic caldera in Iceland.
