Landmannalaugar in Winter

When it comes to cross-country skiing, Iceland’s highlands offer fantastic conditions for a winter adventure. Our northerly location, just below the Arctic Circle, and volcanic landscape, create striking contrasts and incredible diverse natural features. A cozy mountain hut in Landmannalaugar, the third largest geothermal area in the world, will be your base camp for the entire tour. As you traverse this landscape with your professional skiing guide leading the way, you will witness craters, lava fields, snow filled gorges and canyons, where thick steam bursts out of the earth. During the summer, this area is equally beautiful but bustling with people. Winter offers an extraordinary opportunity to explore this famous area with few people around. After a fun-filled day of cross-country skiing, you can relax in a warm hot spring under the enchanting evening sky. If you’re lucky, the Northern Lights might put on a dazzling display.
