Full description
Update August 9th: The flow of new lava at Litli-Hrutur has stopped, at least for the time being. The area is still smoldering and is fascinating to visit. Enjoy the mountain views at Lake Kleifarvatn and hike to the erupting volcano at Litli Hrutur volcano on this day trip from Reykjavík. Have the option to select pickup and drop-off. Unwind after your hike with a soak in the Blue Lagoon and a complimentary drink. Start your adventure with a pickup in Reykjavík and head towards the Reykanes Peninsula. Peer out of the window to a landscape of mossy-covered lava fields, geothermal fields, fishing villages, breathtaking coastal features, and mountain lakes. Explore hot springs and the black basalt beach of Lake Kleifarvatn. In July 2023, a new volcanic fissure opened in the hills of Reykjanes. Hike past the 2022 eruption sites at Merdalir Volcano in Geldingadalur valley. The hike takes about 2 hours each way on generally flat terrain. You won´t regret the effort though as you are rewarded with a stunning display of natural force. The lava spewing from this new fissure is piling on top of itself, meaning the new crater is growing larger on an hourly basis. A new mountain is being born here. Witness newly formed green lava descending from the volcano into old lava moss and rocks. After the unforgettable experience, hike back down the valley once more. Your bones might be weary so ending your day by relaxing in the Blue Lagoon is the perfect medicine. Let the warm healing geothermal waters soften your muscles and soul after your volcanic experience.

The outcome of these t I'llrips depends very much on the guide who has to make the correct decisions depending on weather, the people who partocipate and otherç factors. Our guide, Gudrun, could make good decisions because of her deep knowledge of the area and her perceptive ability. She encouraged people to keep going, offered assistance and support. By all means a very good guide and an excelente anímateur. I would happily do that again.

Really great tour! The guide was good, kept everyone on track and on time during the hike. The actual hike was easy enough, about 2 km one way. It was a bit steep and the wind didn't help, but you don't need to be an experienced hiker to manage it. We saw some thermal hot springs on route to the hike. The blue lagoon bit was also really good. The time there was perfectly sufficient. We spent over an hour in the water.
