Summary
Description
Discover the beauty of two mountains near Iceland’s capital while riding an ATV on this exhilarating tour on Hafrafell and Ulfarsfell. This quick, two-hour adventure is perfect for travelers looking for a thrilling way to experience some of Iceland’s fascinating landscapes.
You’ll start the tour at the base camp for ATVs, just on the outskirts of Iceland’s capital. You can go there on a self-drive or by riding a bus. You may also arrange a pick-up from a predetermined meeting point in Reykjavik. Once you arrive, your experienced guides will dress you in all the necessary gear, and you’ll set out on your adventure.
To drive an ATV, you will need to present a valid driver’s license. However, kids and non-drivers can still join the tour by riding the back of the ATV as passengers.
Once you’re all geared up, your two-hour journey over beautiful, rugged terrain begins. You’ll start by taking the bumpy route around Lake Hafravatn before riding up and down two mountains, Hafrafell and Ulfarsfell.
Hafrafell is a scenic location known for its accessible hiking trails and panoramic views of Iceland's natural landscapes. The trail to the summit varies in difficulty, allowing hikers to choose routes that suit their experience levels.
Along the way, you’ll be treated to views of moss-covered lava fields, volcanic rock formations, and the surrounding hills. At the summit, there’s a breathtaking panorama of Reykjavik, the neighboring mountains, and the expansive Faxafloi bay.
Like Hafrafell, Ulfarsfell is another favorite hiking spot and the mountain offers excellent trails for ATVs and buggy tours. Reaching the top reveals a sweeping vista of the city, Mount Esja, and on clear days, even the Snaefellsnes peninsula and Reykjavik in the distance.
For this tour, the trails that take you to and from the summits are exhilarating to rush along, and the views from each peak are spectacular. At each, you will be welcome to stop for photos and to swap drivers if both of you are qualified. While on top of these two beautiful mountains, be sure to take as many pictures of the captivating landscape as possible.
After summiting Ulfarsfell, you’ll take the route back down the mountain and return to base camp. After dropping off your ATV and equipment, the rest of the day is yours to relax, pack in more tours, or upload the beautiful photos you took on your adventure.
Take an ATV ride up two incredible mountains just outside Iceland’s capital. Check availability by choosing a date.
