ATV
(Quad bike) & river rafting combination day tour in South Iceland, available directly from Reykjavík city.
Trip difficulty 2+ out of 5 possible.
We start with a full throttle ATV bike trip along
the foot of Hellisheiði mountain range only 25 minutes drive outside of Reykjavik. Racing through the lava fields
is a truly exciting experience and a great start of this adventurous
day. After the quad biking ride an authentic Icelandic lunch awaits you, it´s necessary for you to gain strength before starting the rafting adventure.
Next you will be picked up and driven to Drumbó Basecamp
on the banks of Hvítá River. We gear up for rafting on the white water glacier
river of Hvítá.
The
river has a perfectly balanced mix of serene canyons and adrenaline
pumping waves and rapids. We raft for 7 kilometers and at one point
participants get to jump from a cliff into the river.
For those looking for extra action the option of
white water canoeing
is available. Shower and sauna after the rafting is included.
The Full Throttle tour is the ultimate action
combination tour.
