ATV Adventure

Ride into the breathtaking countryside on the outskirts of Isafjordur on an ATV made for rugged terrain and exhilarating adventures. After a briefing to ensure that you maximize the experience, you will drive off following the guide in a caravan of four-wheel-drive all-terrain vehicles. Much of the way will be on gravel roads that would otherwise be inaccessible. As you ascend into the mountains behind Isafjordur, the views will become even more spectacular as you will enjoy a unique elevated perspective of the town below. Many of its most colorful, well-preserved wooden buildings date to the 19th century. As you look out over the pristine waters of Skutulsfjörður fjord, which is an arm of a larger fjord, you can’t help but be awed by the dramatic setting. During stops, the guide will describe the natural beauty that draws so many outdoor enthusiasts such as hikers and kayakers to Isafjordur.
