  Kleifarvatn Lake

  (This stop is not currently guaranteed on each tour. If the volcano hike takes longer than expected, we may skip this stop) Kleifarvatn is the biggest lake in the volcanic Reykjanes Peninsula surrounded by mountains that once were formed in eruptions under the ice. Decorated with black basalt beaches and alien rock formations sculpted by the weather elements throughout the centuries. Kleifarvatn is affected by earthquakes and shifting plates that have formed underwater hot springs with bubbling warm water which is an amazing spectacle to see with your own eyes.

  Reykjanes Peninsula

  After 2 summers, of volcanic eruptions in Reykjanes, all looked peaceful and calm until July 2023, when a series of earthquakes indicated a new eruption was about to take place. And so it proved, when on July 10th, a new fissure opened at Litli Hrutur, to the north of the Meradalir eruption site of 2022. The hike to a good viewing point takes around 2 hours each way. The route we take can change from day to day depending on wind and weather conditions. There are a couple of short and steep sections, but the way is generally pretty flat. Your expert guide will make sure this adventure is fun, but more importantly safe and responsible. Depending on the wind direction and advice from the safety authorities on site, the walking route we take is subject to change.
