Volcano Hekla & Highland Adventure

A day trip to Landmannalaugar the highland paradise and Hekla volcano. Hekla is the most active volcano in Iceland.  Arctic Trucks Experience offers guided Iceland tours in the amazing highlands.

We offer two versions of this tour, driver guided or you can do the driving, accompanied by our guide.

Description

On this tour, you will see more lava than you’ve probably ever seen before!
We will be traveling to the most special areas that our backyard has to offer. This is the most ultimate Arctic Truck experience. Deserted tracks in combination with a stunning ruggedness of the surroundings, will result in an unforgettable experience.

We’ll drive to Landmannalaugar, a highland paradise where the extraordinary colors of the area leave nobody untouched. On the journey, we drive on mountain- and gravel roads through beautiful landscapes and colorful mountains and cross some rivers. Landmannalaugar offers the most beautiful mountain ranges and a natural warm river that you can take a bath in! After a relaxing and a wonderful bath in the natural warm river in Landmannalaugar we head back normal roads and if conditions are good we pass Hekla volcano. Hekla is a 1450-meter-high, one of Iceland’s most active volcanoes and last erupted in the year 2000. During the Middle Ages, Europeans called the volcano the “Gateway to Hell.”

Depending on conditions your Arctic Trucks guide will decide what tracks are the most fun to drive in finalizing our task for the day, a view of the volcano and a visit to Landmannalaugar.

This tour offers all the best tracks and sights that the Icelandic highlands have to offer!

For this view you need total darkness, clear skies For this view you need total darkness, clear skies and auroral activity (And of course to be in Iceland). Then watching the Northern Lights dancing around you is just breathtaking.

Arctic Trucks Experience

Only few people have had the opportunity to sit behind the wheel of a powerful 4x4 in one of the world’s most unique places. Arctic Trucks has now made it possible to experience the remote areas of Iceland in guided self-drive tours, driving cars like those used in the well-known BBC television show Top Gear, in their journey to the Magnetic North Pole.
