Discover active volcanoes and vast lava fields, bubbling mud pools, hot springs and more whilst raising much needed funds in aid of Pendleside Hospice!
We will be hiking to Iceland’s youngest volcano, Gelgingaldir and neighbouring Fagradaslsfjall before exploring the ethereal peaks of the Mount Hengill heritage site – scaling the impressive Vörðuskeggi Peak with spectacular views over Lake Þingvellir, and Eyjafjallajökull and the distant Westman Islands. Our adventures will also see us trek along the fault lines between Europe and America.
Don’t forget to keep your eyes to the skies while you are there and you might be lucky enough to experience Lady Aurora herself!
