You'll walk along ancient lava fields filled with unique obsidian and basalt rocks while steam vents and bubbling hot springs release geothermal warmth into the air. 

The trails range in difficulty, so whether you're a seasoned hiker or an enthusiastic beginner, the guide will tailor the experience to suit everyone's pace and ability. Overall, the two-way hike covers five to six hours.

After a rewarding trek through Landmannalaugar's most iconic landscapes, the tour concludes with a soak in the area's famous hot springs. 

Nestled amidst the vibrant colors of the mountains and under Iceland's vast sky, these natural geothermal pools offer a relaxing and rejuvenating experience. It's the perfect activity for soothing sore muscles after your hike.
