What to expect?
-
We start from our office by Lake Mývatn and drive with the Fat Bikes on a trailer for 15 minutes to our start point. We then cycle through the green hills and volcanic rocks, exploring the Volcanic landscape near Krafla Volcano where it last erupted in 1984. We enjoy amazing views and stop a few times to enjoy the view, take pictures and catch our breath. The tour is challenging and because some hills are very steep, we have to walk the bikes up or down. We ride on a narrow trail through lava, sand, gravel, and dirt from the Krafla area up and down Dalfjall Mountain and end in Reykjahlíð village by Lake Mývatn.
