Private Thorsmork Day Hike by Super Jeep

Itinerary

1. 1
   Stop 6 hours

   Þórsmörk valley is an incredibly beautiful mountain ridge in the heart of South Iceland, located between three glaciers; Eyjafjallajökull, Mýrdalsjökull, and Tindfjallajökull. To reach this secluded valley our guide operates a fully equipped 4×4 Super Jeep to get us through the rough highland roads and across various gushing glacial rivers. Beautiful rivers, verdant vegetation, stunning waterfalls, dramatic canyons – all of this awaits you, and more. You will spend your day traveling around this landscape which could have been taken directly out of a fairytale. Hiking and exploring the Valley of Thor is an adventure you will never forget! We also stop off at some beautiful sceneries along the way into/out of Þórsmörk, including Gígjökull, an Eyjafjallajökull outlet glacier from where a major glacial flood grandly cascaded during the 2010 eruption. We will take few stops to hike, the hike is about 8 km. The path is uneven at times and the route takes you uphill and downhill.
