Description

Conquer the majestic mountain in Iceland’s whale-watching capital in this thrilling e-bike tour of the Husavik Mountain top. This 2.5-hour adventure takes travelers along the mountain’s trails and tracks, passing a beautiful lake and various natural wonders.

The action begins when you meet with a local guide behind the Husavik Whale Watching Center. They will briefly introduce the e-bike tour and provide safety tips and reminders for the ride. Moreover, the guide will give you a helmet and a full-suspension e-mountain bike.

If this is your first time riding an e-bike, the guide will teach you the basics. The good thing about riding an e-bike is that it’s similar to riding a regular bike. The main difference is that an e-bike has an electrical drive system that gives you extra power, helping you travel faster and cover longer distances.

After wearing your safety gear, you’ll start pedaling from Husavik harbor toward the top of Husavik Mountain. As you go through the moderately challenging trail, you’ll see Icelandic horses, smaller than regular horses. Icelandic horses are also known for being good-natured and carrying a strong but elegant physique.

You’ll also pass by natural baths that use Iceland’s renowned geothermal resources. One of the most enchanting aspects of the geothermal baths in Husavik is their setting amid the rugged Icelandic countryside.

You’ll cross the Husavik mountain top as you continue along the trail. As a reward, majestic views of the famous Skjalfandi Bay await. Skjalfandi Bay is famous for being one of the best places to watch whales in Iceland. Take time to savor the beautiful coastline views and the Kinnarfjoll mountains.

After enjoying the mountain top, you’ll return to the trail until you reach the beautiful Lake Botnsvatn. The area is full of walking trails and is a haven for mushrooms and blueberries between late August and September. 

The lake boasts serene waters and surrounding vistas. Moreover, the shores of Lake Botnsvatn are rich in lush vegetation and moss-covered rocks, adding elements for excellent photo opportunities. You’ll also visit a secret beach where you can take more pictures of Husavik’s natural beauty.

For the tour’s final leg, you’ll ride on a new mountain bike track that leads to Husavik’s captivating botanical garden. You’ll have enough time to appreciate the flowers before returning to the Husavik harbor, where you’ll cap off the tour with a free drink at Restaurant Gamli Baukur.

Take advantage of this opportunity to visit the Husavik mountain top on this 2.5-hour e-bike tour. Check availability now by choosing a date.
