Additional Information

A zipline journey is an exhilarating escapade, perfect for those seeking an exciting yet incredibly safe experience. You kick off the exhilarating tour with a brief 3-minute vehicle trip to the launching site that offers a stunning view over one of Iceland’s significant glaciers, Mýrdalsjökull. The adventure gets even better as it’s a blend of light hiking across the magnificent Icelandic terrain through a river canyon known as Grafargil. We traverse uneven terrain and ride ziplines strategically located over rivers and waterfalls. There are two ziplines, one stretching 240 meters and the other 140 meters. In the course of the journey, there’s a touch of thrill, one part is aptly called The Leap of Faith. The tour usually wraps up with a pleasant stroll back via the old highway no.1. While zooming down the ziplines, don’t miss the opportunity to admire the surrounding landscape, it´s striking and offers a bird’s-eye perspective.

Just do it - I'm 63, working on my fear of heights. This was an exhilarating, awesome experience on a windy day and came with a surprise bonus at the end that I wished I could do again. It was one of my absolutely favorit highlights of our trip to Iceland. Would do it again in a heart beat.

Awesome! - We had 6 of us, 3 of whom were super nervous, one to the point of tears. But all 6 made it through every zip & we all had an amazing time! The guides were great, the scenery beautiful & the zips were really fun. Highly recommend!

Great fun! - This was a lot of fun. The experience didn't take long either, leaving you with plenty of time to still be able to fit in all the amazing other sights in the area. That said, as soon as we finished, I wanted to do it all over again straight away. The ziplines are not scary at all. Our 9 year old loved them. And the surroundings are very pretty. The guides were friendly and attentive. They inspired confidence.

Norwegian family having a blast - So, these are not the longest ziplines, nor the most challenging ones, but if you have limited time in the area around Vik this activity might just be your best choice. This zipline activity which includes a couple of cool surprises comes highly recommended. Our family with a 11 and 13 year old loved it. The scenery is just gorgeous, and the guides.....talk about professional and very funny guys! Good laugh :-) We would do it again for sure!

Brilliant activity with lovely hosts - Asa & Sammi were fabulous hosts for our Zipline Adventure. We really enjoyed the hike and zipline through the beautiful valley as we were blessed with fantastic weather. Our favourite part was the end section of mini bungee! Great you also get discounts at local restaurants too. Brilliant couple, great banter and laughs. Thank you!

100000000/10 completely recommend you have to do it - THIS WAS THE BEST TOUR I DID WHILE IN ICEAND FOR A WEEK! I did a bunch of tours also. But the guides were AMAZING!!! They were sooo nice and fun!!! I had a BLAST hanging out with them while we did the tour. I was so freaking scared of zip lining but they were super nice and helpful! They would push me because I was scared to walk off LOL! The scenery was gorgeous and it was just overall an AMAZING experience. Everyone that was also part of the tour was super fun and we made a couple of friends!!! It was awesome I would so do it again and if for anything to just see the guides again. They were AWESOME. Loved them!!!

Awesome time and awesome guide (Sami) - We had an awesome time! Sami (not sure how to spell) was in particular an awesome guide. He was very personable, able to interact well with everyone, and made sure we all had a fun time. We were pleasantly surprised to zipline "Spider Man style" on one zipline, do a short zipline with pose, and have a mini bungee experience. We're very glad we found this trip and would recommend to everyone.
