What you can expect

Visit the lava fields of the Fagradalsfjall volcano with a geologist/volcanologist on this guided hike from Reykjavík. Uncover interesting geological features about the formation of the eruption and the lava fields.

Start with pickup from Reykjavik and drive through the older lava fields as you travel to the eruption side of the volcano. Learn more about the volcanic activity of the Reyjanes peninsula and admire the features of recent eruptions.

Discover how the hot lava field is continuously forming new land, and how the composition of the lava influences the appearance of the rocks. Hike up to the crater viewpoint and enjoy some time to admire the spectacular panoramic views of the volcanic landscapes below.

Afterward, relax on the return journey to Reykjavik with a scenic drive past hot springs, lakes, and mountains of the Reykjanes peninsula.
