Description

Includes meal, Moderate activity

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Your six-and-a-half-hour journey begins as soon as you board your 4x4 vehicle and make your way to Kleifarvatn Lake, the largest lake on the Reykjanes peninsula. Here, you can get out, stretch your legs and take in the breathtaking views. Then, you'll continue to the lake's southern end for a walk near Krysuvik, a geothermal area known for its boiling pools of wildly colored mud known as solfataras. After a brief photo stop you'll continue on to Strandarkirkja church. The present structure was built in 1888 but a church has stood on the same spot since 1200 A.D. Next, is a delicious, langoustine lobster lunch in Stokkseyri, a coastal town famous for its black sandy beach. Finally, you'll wind your way back to Reykjavik over a trail of rivers, mud banks and an otherworldly terrain of steam vents and bore holes known as "The Thousand Waters."
