About this experience
We focus on small groups.
In this small group family friendly ATV Quad tour from Reykjavik we are like worlds away but still so close. If you like to feel the Nature on your own skin on ATV Quad then this is the tour for you. In this tour you can go Single Ride or Double Ride. Double Ride is the standard rate and that means two people are on each quad. You can select "Single Ride" in the booking progress and pay a little extra if you dont want to share the Quad and go single ride to the tour.
We pick up from all hotels in the Reykjavik area if it is possible. But note that the Reykjavik city has made a non pickup zones for tourist in the downtown so we pick up from special tourists bus stops over there. The nearest Tourists Bus stop is usually not far away.
If you decide to meet us at the meeting point our basecamp is only 20 minutes drive from downtown Reykjavik.

Itinerary and highlights
Activity Description
Upon arrival at our base just outside the city, our expert guides will provide a safety briefing and gear you up. Then, it’s time to hop on your ATV and ride ancient trails at modern speed!
We’ll head through rugged Icelandic terrain towards the beautiful Lake Hafravatn. Here, we'll pause for a scenic photo break—keep an eye out for Icelandic horses, local birds like the ptarmigan, and perhaps even an Arctic fox on our way up Hafrafell mountain.
At the summit, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views over Reykjavik and the surrounding volcanic landscapes. As you take in the scenery above Mosfellsbær, you can ponder the local legend of Silfur Egils—the lost silver hoard of the famous Viking Egill Skallagrímsson, rumored to be hidden somewhere in these very hills.
After taking in the fresh mountain air and spectacular sights, we’ll cruise back down to base.
Duration: Approximately 2.5 hours. Please note that the exact tour length may vary slightly depending on current weather and trail conditions.
