From Hvolsvöllur, journey east along the South Coast to witness the powerful Skógafoss, explore Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon, and experience the stunning Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach.
Skógafoss
One of Iceland's largest and most beautiful waterfalls, Skógafoss plunges 60 meters over ancient sea cliffs. You can walk right up to its base or climb the stairs for panoramic views.
Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon
Embark on an easy hike along the winding Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon, known for its steep walls and serpentine river. The 1.3-mile trail offers stunning viewpoints of the unique geological formations.
Foss á Síðu
A picturesque waterfall cascading directly from a farm into a small pond, Foss á Síðu offers a charming photo opportunity and a brief break on the scenic drive east.
Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon
Marvel at the ethereal beauty of Jökulsárlón, where massive icebergs calve from the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier and drift slowly towards the ocean. Keep an eye out for seals.
Jokulsarlon Zodiac Tour
Experience the glacier lagoon up close on a Zodiac boat tour, navigating among the colossal icebergs. The 1-hour tour departs at 18:00, so arrive by 17:40 for check-in.
Diamond Beach
Walk along the black sand shores of Diamond Beach, where glistening chunks of ice, polished by the ocean, wash ashore, resembling scattered diamonds against the dark sand.
