Itinerary
Kayaking Adventure
Your journey begins at our base in Mávagarður C (the grey building), where you’ll meet your guide and gear up for the adventure ahead. From there, we take a short walk to the shoreline behind the historic houses of Neðstikaupstaður. Here, you’ll receive a safety briefing and a quick paddling lesson to prepare for the water.
Once ready, we set off to explore the beautiful fjord, keeping an eye out for diverse bird species and playful seals in their natural habitat. The serene paddle lasts approximately 2 hours, offering incredible views of the surrounding mountains and pristine waters. We then return to our base to recharge for the next part of the adventure.
Biking Adventure
After a refreshing lunch, we hop on our bikes and start pedaling up the town’s main street, Aðalstræti. Our route takes us toward the mountains, where the first climb leads us to the avalanche barrier. Biking along its hidden backside, we weave through the scenic terrain before re-emerging at the mountain’s base.
The ride continues along flowing single tracks toward the enchanting forest of Tungudalur, home to the stunning Buná River and waterfall. For a panoramic view of the fjord, we cross the valley to reach the final avalanche barrier. A short, steep climb to the top rewards us with breathtaking vistas of the surrounding landscape. From there, it’s a leisurely ride back into town to complete this memorable day.
