One of the most breathtaking locations in Southern Iceland is Landmannalaugar: a region renowned for its rhyolite mountains displayed in vividly coloured layers. Landmannalaugar really is a photographer’s dream destination.

Landmannalaugar is known as the heart of the Icelandic highlands. It’s a beautiful area filled with colorful, rhyolite mountains, geothermal activity and incredible hiking trails. What’s more, it is only accessible during the summer months. Intimate super jeep tours led by a local guide are the best way to soak up the scenery. These super jeep tours usually host 2-8 guests and allow you to take routes not accessible by normal car.

Landmannalaugar: geothermal activity and more

On the drive from Hotel Rangá you will experience a landscape that has gone through dramatic changes. You will see endless twisting and turning lava formations that have emerged from a myriad of different craters. What’s more, you will pass the roots of Mt. Hekla and witness the remote rugged landscape of one of the biggest geothermal areas in Iceland.
