Superjeep & Hike in Thorsmork / Jeppaferð til Þórsmarkar
-
The Tour starts from our base camp in Hveragerdi.
Join us in a fun super jeep tour on the Southern lowlands of Iceland on modified jeep to Thorsmork (the forest of Thor) which is an incredibly beautiful mountain ridge situated between the glaciers Tindfjallajökull & the famous Eyjafjallajökull, which erupted in the year 2010, stopping all the flights in Europe.
On our way into Thorsmork we drive over deep and powerful glacier rivers and over challenging and rough terrain, testing the capability of the jeep. We will stop and explore a beautiful canyon with a hidden waterfall in the end, we will take a look at Gígjökull glacier that almost all disappeared in the 2010 eruption and you will be able to see and witness the power of the eruption.
In Þórsmörk you will be able to choose the difficulty level of the hike/day. As Þórsmörk offers several hiking options, we can go for an easy and relaxing shight seeing with short hikes, exploring the lower parts of the area. We can go for a moderate difficult hike where we will hike higher up in the mountains where we will see magnificent view and landscape or we can go for the most challenging option where we will hike up to Fimmvörðuháls where you will meet the lava that ran in the year 2010, in the famous Eyjafjallajökull eruption.
On our way back we will stop at the famous waterfall. Seljarlandsfoss, where you will be able to go behind the waterfall and explore while we will pump air back into the tires of the jeep. If you have already explored Seljarlandsfoss, then we will stop at another location.
Þorsmork is known for its beauty, vibrantly colored valleys and abundance of huge surrounding mountains and glaciers that will for sure deliver an unforgettable experience.Note,- ADD A BBQ DINNER, Then we would end the day by barbequing together in Thorsmork (Basum) before driving back.
- It is possible to add to the tour an overnight in a tent or in a cabin
- The tour is a private tour which means that you control how difficult you like the day to be. The guide will have several options :D
