Dagskrá
Join this unforgettable 3-hour adventure into the heart of Iceland’s volcanic past with the Raufarhólshellir Lava Tunnel Tour. The tour includes round-trip bus fare, a guided caving experience, and all necessary safety equipment, such as helmets and flashlights.
Upon arrival, you’ll descend into the Raufarhólshellir Lava Tunnel, one of Iceland’s longest and most renowned lava tubes, formed over 5,200 years ago during the Leitahraun eruption. With the aid of footbridges and strategically placed lighting, you’ll navigate through the tunnel’s rugged terrain, marveling at the vibrant mineral colors and intricate rock formations that tell the story of the volcanic forces that shaped this subterranean world.
The tour is designed to be accessible to most visitors, though those with mobility challenges should be aware of uneven surfaces and stairs. After approximately 55–60 minutes inside the cave, you’ll return to Reykjavík, concluding a day filled with geological wonder and natural beauty.
