About this activity

Experience raw Icelandic wilderness in 2 hours on an automated buggy tour across Grindavik's volcanic landscape. Navigate black lava fields, abandoned settlements, and mountain ridges with panoramic views of the Blue Lagoon and Eldey island—ideal for thrill-seekers wanting concentrated adventure without extensive off-road experience.

Are you looking for thrill then this is the right tour for you it´s short but alot of adventure in just one hour, this is not your typical bus tour we ride in the Buggy around Hópsnes where we will pass by ship-wrecks and old ruins that people used to live in from there we head for some amazing mountain safari we drive in the side of the Mountain Húsafjall and onto the top of Hagafell where we can expect great view over the Blue Lagoon, Island of Eldey or fire Island if you are looking for short adventure in Iceland this is the right one for you.. The ATVs are automatic and easy to drive, so no experience is needed.

Highlights

  • Drive automatic buggies across dramatic lava formations near Hópsnes
  • Explore abandoned ruins and shipwrecks from historical settlements
  • Climb mountain ridges including Húsafjall and Hagafell peaks
  • Sweeping vistas of the Blue Lagoon and Eldey (Fire Island) from elevated terrain

Insider tips

  • Book during clear weather windows—Grindavik's weather changes rapidly, and summit views are weather-dependent
  • Wear multiple layers; mountain elevation and wind speed increase significantly at Hagafell's top
  • Arrive 15 minutes early to familiarize yourself with the buggy controls on flat terrain before heading into rougher sections

Good to know

  • Automatic transmission requires no motorcycle licence or off-road experience
  • Bring waterproof jacket and sturdy closed-toe boots (lava rocks are sharp)
  • Tour covers approximately 2 hours of continuous driving; not suitable for those with back/joint sensitivities
  • Minimum age/weight restrictions likely apply (confirm with operator)
