We’ll fly over one of Iceland’s most active volcanic regions, the Hellisheiði plateau, where you’ll see vast moss-covered lava fields stretching to the horizon, with colorful basalt mountains, steaming hot springs, and the geothermal power plants that supply Reykjavik with renewable energy.
During this tour, we make a special landing off the beaten path, away from the crowds, to experience the raw energy of the region firsthand.
At our landing spot in the Hengill geothermal area—named after the Hengill volcano—you’ll witness Icelandic nature in its purest form. You’ll get up close to hot springs and bubbling mud pots, and during summer, you might even spot sheep wandering through the valley. This is a completely natural site, without safety ropes or other tourist infrastructure—it’s nature as it was created.
No matter the season, this area offers stunning, colorful, and magical views. On our return flight, we’ll take a scenic route over Reykjavik, giving you a unique aerial perspective of Iceland’s capital.
This tour operates in a shared group, with a maximum of 6 passengers.
The total duration of the tour is 50–60 minutes, including a 25–35 minute guided helicopter flight and a 15-minute landing in a remote geothermal area on an ancient volcano. The landing is always subject to weather conditions.
