  BackCountry northern lights adventure

  45,000 ISK

  Activity

  Northern lights/sightseeing tour near Ísafjörður. 4-5 hours. Every night upon request. Experience an evening in a SuperJeep exploring the area near Isafjordur searching for the northern lights. We will drive away from the town lights to areas where it might be possible to see the elusive and spectacular northern lights. Moreover, the westfjords are prime Arctic fox territory, so it would not be surprising to catch a glimpse of one in the beam of our headlights, or hear them howling in the night. Please note that there is no guarantee of a northern lights sighting but we will try our very best for the tour to be a success. Duration: 4 hours

  The majestic waterfall Dynjandi

  34,000 ISK

  Activity

  Experience Dynjandi waterfall and the high, narrow winding backcountry roads of the Westfjord Highlands in a SuperJeep. This journey will take us from Isafjordur through two different underground tunnels, across mountains and along beautiful fjords . The thunderous waterfall Dynjandi awaits us in Arnarfjorður fjord. We will stop there for aprox one hour so you can hike up to the base of this majestic waterfall . The waterfall is clearly visible from the parking lot so you don’t need to hike if you don’t want to. On our way back we will stop at Hrafnseyri cafe where you can buy coffee and cakes if you are interested and then drive by the farm Audkula, where there is a large colony of Eider Ducks during the breeding season . Who knows, maybe we will see King Eider in the nesting area. It’s very common to see Humpback whales in the fjord during the summer months. If possible we will drive back across the mountains on either Hrafnseyrarheiði heath road or Álftamýrarheiði heath road that are only passable in the summer months . (if the mountain roads are not passable we will drive through the tunnels both ways) Duration: 5 hours
