This easy cycling tour takes you on a relaxing loop through the green valleys and urban forests of Iceland’s vibrant capital. You’ll meet your guides at the parking lot of Nauthólsvík—the golden-sand beach known for its geothermal lagoon, hot tubs, and steam baths.
Once you’re comfortable on your two-wheeled companion, your small group will hop onto a dedicated bike path leading to Fossvogsdalur valley. With serene trails, trickling streams, and over 500 tree species, the park is a tranquil oasis where you can take a deep breath and unwind.
From there, you’ll follow shaded trails to Elliðaárdalur, a lush recreational area in the heart of the city that feels like untouched wilderness. It’s home to various bird species, wild rabbits, and minks. You’ll pedal past the salmon-fishing rivers, waterfalls, lava rocks, and forested areas, taking in the beauty of Icelandic nature.
The tour ends back at the beach, where you can dip your toes in the ocean, enjoy a warm drink, and chat with guides and fellow travelers.
