Amazing tour to head west and explore the famous man made ice cave in the second biggest glacier in Iceland, Langjökull. We will start our journey heading west and our first stop is at Deildartunguhver, Europs´most powerful hotspring.
Then we will drive through the medieval church center Reykholt, which was home to one of Iceland´s most famous historical figures, Snorri Sturluson.
Our next stop is at the beautiful lava cascades Hraunfossar waterfalls, which actually are streaming through rivulets in the lava field and into the glacier river Hvítá.
Before we are heading to the Glacier we will have a lunch stop in Husafell.
After lunch we will take you up to glacier and to the entrance of the Ice Cave in our super jeep.
After we had the chance to go deep inside the glacier and see the ice that's been forming over centuries, we will head back driving a mountain road, Kaldi dalur, cold valley , with glaciers and volcanos, and one of the smallest glacier in Iceland and also with the shortest name Ok, which is the first Icelandic glacier to officially lose its status as a glacier
At the end of this mountain road , we will visit the most treasured site, Þingvellir National Park, with the tectonic plates and the Icelandic old parliament from 930.
The mountain road Kaldidalur to the National Park Þingvellir, is only possible during summer, June – October.
Then during winter, we could stop again at the hotspring Deildartunguhver on our way back after the glacier and take a nice warm bath in a hotspring bathing spa Krauma
