Description
Discover Iceland’s South Coast on a tour featuring hidden waterfalls, a glacier hike on Sólheimajökull, and the serene black sands of Víkurfjara.
Begin your journey at Urriðafoss, one of Iceland’s most powerful yet often overlooked waterfalls, roaring through peaceful lowlands. Continue to Kvernufoss, a hidden gem tucked in a narrow gorge where you can walk behind the cascading water for an unforgettable perspective.
The adventure intensifies with a guided glacier hike on Sólheimajökull, where you’ll explore icy crevasses, sculpted ridges, and the striking interplay of volcanic ash and glacial ice.
After this exhilarating experience, wind down with a stroll along the lesser-visited Víkurfjara beach, where black sands meet dramatic sea cliffs and the iconic Reynisdrangar sea stacks.
