“The volcanic landscape covered in green moss is mesmerizing and photos hardly do it justice. The idea of going and finding perfect single track that laces through the hills was our goal, and with the help of Magne from Icebike we set out to find the best trails the south island had to offer. “

Welcome to Iceland! Today we RIDE!
We'll pick you up anywhere in Greater Reykjavík area from 09:00-09:30. We start with a 30 minute drive to our base where we get the bikes ready and chat with the guides about the coming days. Then dive right into it: Steamer trail was created by Icebike guides, a narrow singletrack that takes us to the geothermal areas. Post ride: Check in at the Greenhouse. Evening and dinner: You decide to take it slow or head out riding again. We'll provide vouchers for the foodhall downstairs, enjoy dinner at your own pace. Option of keeping the e-mtb for the night to head out self guided to a warm river for a dip. Don't use up all your energy, tomorrow will be epic!
From Thingvellir national park bact to village trails
Today we shuttle to Thingvellir national park, ride some steep AM singletracks there and enjoy lunch in a unique location. Afternoon: pedal back to Hveragerði village over mountain passes.
Dinner: On the groundfloor of the hotel there is a store,foodhall and a bar. Head to the foodhall in your own time -we recommend fish of the day at restaurant "Hipstur".
The BIG day: Welcome to the highlands! This is the backcountry postcard area "Landmannalaugar" Overnight in highland B&B
In the end, weather is the boss of all plans in Iceland and the biggest character anyone has to deal with on the island. So. Days 2 & 3 in the plan can, and will be swapped if weather demands., - we want to ride the best trails in the best possible conditions. Here's the plan: Breakfast 07:00-08:30. Them time to check out and hop on the Icebike van. The drive from today is about 2,5 hours to the trails in nature reserve of Landmannalaugar. This will be a long day with Highland riding at it's best. Today we ride Landmannalaugar singletracks. They are located at the start of famous hiking trail "Laugavegurinn". The rich contrast of black sand and bright glaciers starts our day with breathtaking views. We pedal through the colourful Rhyolite mountains and wind down a steep trail to a green oasis on lush river banks. The wildly-formed canyons along this section of fast singletrack harken back to an age when our mother earth was still in her infancy. To cap this choice day of riding, our terminus point provides an unforgettable panorama of distant glaciers and azure lakes. Post ride: The 1 hour shuttle to the highland B&B is absolutely worth it for the made up beds, warm showers and excellent meal, the well deserved tasty dinner is served at the B&B restaurant.
Canyons and Tectonic area
Wake up in the remote B&B we have breakfast and head out. Today we work our way back to civilisation. We stop enroute at one of Icelands most beautiful waterfalls, named “Háifoss” for a nice singletrack 1-2 hour ride. We start at a scenic point overlooking the waterfall from the top before we start our ride down into the canyon carved by the river leading into the valley Þjórsárdalur. Hop back on support van to ride one more carefully selected singletrack. We know the best trails in the area, cause we built them! Packed lunch. Post ride: We drive back to civilisation, this is goodbye - shuttle to any hotel in greater Reykjavik area. What a trip!.
