THE WILD VALLEY

Flateyjardalur
IceAk Super Jeep
Brettingsstaðir
Extreme snow

Highlights: Laufás, Flateyjardalur, Extreme snow action, spectacular mountain views, multiple waterfalls, farm ruins, and river crossing.

 

Come with us into the Wild Winter Valley where you feel like on an
Arctic-safari with beautiful scenarios and exiting actions in the
extreme snow.

​On this tour we will take you on an off-road snow adventure to the amazing deserted valley Flateyjardalur, the valley is 37km long and stretches all the way to the coast line of the North Atlantic Ocean. On the way we will have to cross multiple rivers and streams, some on snow bridges but others are open. You will get to see breathtaking mountain scenarios, frozen waterfalls and old farm ruins. If we manage to reach the coast we will see the small but nice island Flatey which the valley is named after resting just off the coast. Midway in the valley we will drop by at welcoming mountain hut for a refreshment. During the tour you will have good possibilities of experiencing extreme snow, car stunts, extreme hill climbing (on Super Jeeps) and many other exiting things.

But before all of this we will stop at the old turf farm house Laufás, a well preserved turf house where the oldest parts date back to the medieval times. There you will get to see how Icelander lived in the past in their old turf houses. You will also be able to take a close look at a traditional Icelandic country side church.

A fantastic tour in fantastic nature.

Please note that because of the Extreme level of this tour and distance from civilization then for your safety we always use 2 Super Jeeps for this tour.
