We’ve been creating holidays to Iceland for more than 40 years and can help you discover the best hiking trails on a walking holiday tailored to you.

Iconic hiking trails in Iceland

The 55km-long Laugavegur trail is one of the world’s greatest hiking routes. It takes you on an unforgettable journey from the geothermal hot springs of Landmannalaugar to the verdant glacial valley of Thorsmork, passing colourful mountain slopes, glaciers, lakes and rivers along the way.

In East Iceland, Borgarfjordur Eystri is riddled with superb hiking trails, including the surreal, boulder-strewn mountain valley of Storurd and the deserted coastal inlet of Brunavik.

In West Iceland, the Snaefellsnes Peninsula is also rich in hiking potential. Stride out along the cliffs between Arnarstapi and Hellnar for rock arches, blowholes and seabirds, or set your sights on the snowy slopes of the dormant volcano Snaefellsjokull.

Independent or guided hiking trips

Iceland is a hiker’s paradise. Get footloose in a majestic landscape of volcanoes, lava fields, glaciers, hot springs, waterfalls and black-sand beaches.

Our collection of hiking itineraries is suited to both serious hikers and casual walkers. Join like-minded travellers and hike world-class trails, like Laugavegur, in the company of an expert guide.

Choose a self drive linking scenic walking trails throughout the country. Pick any itinerary and you’ll find places to hike or stroll, though our Fly, Drive and Hike is curated with walkers in mind. You could spend one day roaming a wild and beautiful shore, then set out on a mountain hike the next. And long summer days means you can stride out well into the evening.

Whether you wish to explore independently or in a small escorted group, we can help find your ideal walking holiday.
