More information
Feel like a real explorer inside a great cave made by the lava released from the eruption of the volcano Leitahraun.
1360 meter tunnel was formed 5.200 years ago it is up to 30m wide and 10m high which makes him the most expansive and the longest lava tunnel in Iceland.
Its walls, ceiling and the path that takes you inside the tunnel will make you think about the amazing things mother nature can create, spectacular colors formed by volcanic activity will impress you for sure, unique pictures can be captured with amazing colors hidden under ground.
Exploring the most accessible part of the tunnel takes about 55-60 minutes but keep in mind to wear sturdy shoes and warm waterproof clothes, as there is water dripping from the ceiling, we will take care of the helmets with flash light.
On the standard tour you can explore the cave in an easy way as a footbridge and several paths have been build over the roughest terrain so it is accessible for most travelers but it is not recommended for those who have difficulties with balance or walking on uneven surface and walking up or down the stairs, as it might be too difficult.
