We start with the black as we explore the hidden world of the lava field under the Þingvellir national park. Walking in a cave and discovering the marvels that volcanic activity has created in the past is a trip that everyone can undertake. The Gjábakkahellir cave is a perfect example of an Icelandic lava tube and is situated in one of the most active volcano areas in the world. After the cave we dine on a packed lunch before moving on into the blue...
Snorkeling in Silfra is our second adventure. The Silfra fissure is one of Iceland’s best-kept secrets, an otherworldly scene that is world famous for its heavenly shades of blue. The crystal clear water in the deep fissure gives you a feeling of being weightless as you float down with the lazy current. The snorkeling is a relaxing but exotic trip in an environment most will only encounter in their dreams.
The Black & Blue is an amazing trip, a true journey to the borders of reality and dreams.
Trip difficulty 2 out of 5 possible.
We recommend hiking boots, warm and windproof clothing, gloves and warm undergarments (fleece / wool / thermal) and warm socks. Hiking boots and windproof jackets and pants can be rented from the tour operator.
