Starting from Reykjavik airport we head towards the mountains and fly over Hvalfjord or Whale Bay. In the bottom of that fjord sits Iceland´s tallest waterfall, Glymur. Don´t forget to wave the exhausted hikers below as they look up upon us as we hover above the powerful waterfall. We start heading to the second largest glacier in Europe, Langjökull. It is one of Iceland’s visible remains of the last Ice age.
In summertime you will see cracks and crevices in the glacier formed by its crawling outwards from under its own weight. On the way back, we will pass the 9000 year old volcano Skjaldbreiður that has the rare shape of a shield hardly seen elsewhere in the world. We will fly along the magnificent Continental rift and over Thingvellir national park where you will hear about its important part to play in Icelandic history.
A second landing in Hengil geothermal area is an added bonus for thrill seekers and without a doubt the perfect landscape for those looking for the perfect picture or to pump up their insta-story !
