Iceland lies on the edge of the Arctic Circle and is home to some of Europe’s greatest wild landscapes. A land of incredible contrast and natural beauty, its wild volcanic landscapes, mountains, glaciers, hot springs, geysers and waterfalls, combined with its rich history, literature and folklore, make it a fascinating country to explore.
Staying in a spectacular environment surrounded by lakes and mountain scenery, miles from the nearest big towns, the dark skies offer a great chance of seeing the spectacular Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) we watch each evening – the icing on the cake on this memorable challenge!
There will be snow underfoot, so it’s challenging walking, but no technical expertise is required as we take advantage of seeing this beautiful region in winter.
