Langisjór kayaking and highland exploration
Self drive Super-Jeep tour & kayaking on the Langisjór lake.
Trip difficulty 3 out of 5 possible
Starting
from Reykjavik City on specially modified Super-Land Rover Defenders we
drive up to the last untouched wilderness in Europe, the Icelandic
Highlands. This huge deserted expanse is an every way conceivable
magnificent, a visit that will stay with you. We camp out at the
southwestern end of the beautiful Langisjór lake. The following day we
paddle along this amazing lake towards Vatnajökull glacier, the biggest
in Europe. Framed in by mountains and littered with islands this
highland lake is surely one of the top kayak spots in Europe. After a
day of paddling we camp out again on the shores of lake and enjoy the
peacefulness of the wilderness. On the last day we hike the
Sveinstindur mountain and gain an breathtaking view of the Vatnajökull
glacier and the Fjallbak area with its rugged mountains and haunting
vistas, before driving back to Reykjavik where we will arrive late
evening.
