Itinerary and highlights
From town we drive to our first stop.
Seljalandsfoss is one of the most famous waterfalls in Iceland, known for its unique feature that you can actually walk behind the waterfall. It is located in the south of Iceland, not far from the Ring Road, which makes it a popular stop for tourists exploring the country.
Gljúfrabúi is sometimes referred to as the "Hidden Waterfall" because it is partially hidden within a narrow canyon. To reach this waterfall, you need to walk a short distance from Seljalandsfoss, and you may have to wade through a stream or river, depending on the water level.
Skogafoss is known for its impressive drop of about 60 meters (197 feet) and a width of about 25 meters (82 feet), making it one of the largest and most iconic waterfalls in the country.
Sólheimajökull is a glacier in southern Iceland and is an outlet glacier of the larger Mýrdalsjökull ice cap. It is situated not far from the popular tourist destinations of Skógar and Vik, making it a relatively accessible location for those exploring the region.
Located near the village of Vík in southern Iceland, Reynisfjara is one of the most famous black sand beaches in the country. It's known for its striking basalt columns, hexagonal formations created by cooling lava, and the dramatic Reynisdrangar sea stacks rising from the sea. The waves here can be powerful, so caution is advised when visiting.
Vík is a small coastal village located along the southern coast of Iceland. It offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean, black sand beaches, and dramatic cliffs. The landscape is both stunning and unique.
