Itinerary
1. A town famous for the greenhouses and the “Hot River” of Reykjadalur, sitting in a rift valley between the two continental plates of Eurasia and America.
2. Selfoss is the largest town in South Iceland
3. The name of the town comes from caves near the river.
4. Once you reach the town ,you are getting closer to your adventure.
5. You’ll be able to experience this waterfall right up close as it crashes off the side of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano from a height of 60 meters. During summer months you will be able to walk behind the waterfall.
6. A hidden waterfall,which most visitors miss. We’ll tell you where to find it!
7. Remember to ask your guide all about the colossal eruption here back in 2010, which made Iceland famous all around the world!
8. Skogafoss is one of the most iconic waterfalls in the world, and even featured in “Game of Thrones”. Because of its south-facing position, it is often covered in rainbows as the 60-meter cascade of water produces a lot of spray! Skogafoss is one of the most popular sights in the country and it’s possible to climb to the top of the falls to see it from there too.
9. Solheimajokull is part of one of the largest glaciers in the country, Myrdalsjokull. In the summer months (April to October), you can book an optional extra on this tour to take a glacier hike, with a guide and all the necessary safety equipment provided.
10. The stone sea arches of Dyrholaey can also be seen in the distance from Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach
11. It is now time to visit the world-famous black sand beach at Reynisfjara, where beautifully-shaped basalt columns hug the cliffs, volcanic sands are pounded by powerful Atlantic waves and the starkly shaped sea stacks of the Reynisdrangar tower just offshore.
