Reykjavík: 4-Day Guided Laugavegur Trail Trek｜Iceland

Please kindly recheck the pickup details, meeting point, and session time stated on the voucher for your selected package.

The Laugavegur Trail is Iceland's most famous hiking route, ranked by National Geographic among the world's 20 best hikes. Over four guided days, you'll cover 55 km (34 mi) through the Highlands, from the geothermal hot springs of Landmannalaugar to the birch forests of Þórsmörk valley. Pickup is available from Reykjavík, Hella, or Selfoss, and your guide handles the rest.

Day one starts where the trail earns its nickname, the "Hot Spring Route." Steam rises from the ground at Landmannalaugar, ringed by rhyolite mountains, volcanic rock that turns shades of red, green, and gold. From there, the route climbs into the obsidian fields of Hrafntinnusker, black volcanic glass formed by fast-cooling lava high in Iceland's interior.

You'll pass Álftavatn, a quiet lake framed by mountains, then cross the volcanic black-sand desert near Emstrur. Every day brings different terrain: geothermal valleys, moss-covered lava fields, glacial rivers, and wide ridgelines looking out across the Highlands. By day four, the black sand gives way to green as the trail ends among the birch forests of Þórsmörk, beneath Eyjafjallajökull volcano and Mýrdalsjökull glacier.

Groups are capped at 14 trekkers, small enough that your guide gets to know everyone by name. All meals are included, cooked and coordinated by your guide each day, and your main luggage travels between campsites so you only carry a daypack on the trail. Nights are spent in tents at designated highland campsites, with communal tents for shared dinners and conversation.

Four days, one constantly changing landscape, and Iceland's most famous long-distance trail, with the logistics already taken care of.
