Overnight at Skalakot

Meet your driver-guide in the lobby and set out on your full day exploring the rugged and stunningly beautiful Icelandic landscape. Thorsmork Valley is a nature paradise, named after the Norse God Thor. It is situated in the south of Iceland between the glaciers Tindfjallajökull and Eyjafjallajökull and only accessible on 4WD vehicles.
The name Þórsmörk properly refers only to the mountain ridge between the rivers Krossá, Þröngá and Markarfljót, although it is sometimes used informally to describe a wider area that includes the region between Thorsmork and Eyjafjallajökull. In the valley, the river Krossá winds between the mountains. The valley is closed in between glaciers, Mýrdalsjökull being at the rear end of the valley. This leads to an especially warm climate, better than in the rest of south. In the protected valley, there is green vegetation of moss, fern, Birchwood and other small shrubs. Since the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull, much of the area was covered in a thick layer of volcanic ash. It took several months for nature to return to its normal conditions.

Due to considerable access difficulties, such as unbridged rivers and rough gravel tracks instead of proper roads, the average foreign traveler rarely gets to experience this jewel of the country.
Visit the famous Stakkholtsgjá gorge, and the former glacial lagoon Gígjökulslón, which was destroyed in the Eyjafjallajökull eruption. The site displays perfectly how the eruption affected its near surroundings. Explore one of Thorsmork’s beautiful canyons from within as you wade through a narrow fissure with a stream running through it. BBQ lunch prepared and served by your guide in a scenic spot in the area

You will go to Silfra lagoon, which offers up to 100 meters of underwater visibility and is located on top of the separation between the tectonic plates of Europe and America. Silfra is a dive and snorkelling site where even the best underwater photographs cannot give true justice to the real experience of being suspended in its clear waters.
Upon arrival an expert guide will give you a dry suit and snorekling equipment, the use of which will be explained and ensured that you will be warm and comfortable during your tour of Silfra Hall, Silfra Cathedral, and Silfra Lagoon. During the experience you will discover the four main parts of Silfra; including Silfra’s narrowest section and the location where the continental plates are so close you can almost touch them. The fissure widens into Silfra Hall, where full spectrum of colors and clarity become all the more apparent. At this point if you look at just the right angle you can see all the way to Thingvallavatn, over 150m away. Near to the opening to Thingvallavatn you can enter the Silfra Cathedral; as the depth reaches 23m you will feel like you are flying.
