The Land Rover is raised and modified, and the step up into it is high. If anyone in your group may find that difficult, contact us before you book: +354 691 1849 or mudshark@mudshark.is.

We depart from Hella village shopping centre at 9 a.m. and head eastward along the south coast, learning about farming and farm culture on the way, stopping by small and large waterfalls — Gluggafoss, Seljalandsfoss, Gljúfrabúi and Skógafoss. We stop at Dyrhólaey nature reserve and Reynisfjara black beach, turning back at Vík village, dropping by the wool market if you like. A quick hot dog or "kók og prins" (we will explain later) at the petrol station and we are homeward bound. From Vík to Hella is about an hour's drive, and we will be back around 5 p.m.
