The lava tour

ABOUT THE LAVA TOUR

 

For the ultimate experience, we keep the groups small (max 8-10 persons). At this location, bigger groups are not possible. Private tours can be arranged according to availability at the scheduled departure times. Please contact us for price & availability (info@saltvik.is / +354 8476515).

 

From our base at lake Mývatn (200 m south of the information center at Reykjahlíð), we offer this fantastic tour in the magical surroundings of lake Mývatn.

The trail leads from our base at the lakeside towards the lava fields surrounding the lake. This tour is especially suitable for inexperienced and beginning riders, and will mainly be on a walk, so we can enjoy the fabulous lava fields and volcanoes around us from the back of a horse. When everybody is up for it though, we might try a little bit of tölt, the special gait of the Icelandic horse!

If you are an experienced rider you‘re of course very welcome to join the ride through the lava as well. Or please check out our Seaside Tour or Seaside Extended tour, which we are operating from Saltvík farm, 4km south of Húsavík.
