The Land of Fire and Ice: Ready to embark on a journey unlike any other?
Iceland is one of those mythical places that captures the imagination and beckons with the enchanting allure of untamed beauty, and one that we long dreamt of exploring. This expedition is crafted especially for runners in which you’ll experience a landscape that defies reality: rugged volcanoes, thundering waterfalls, colossal glaciers, sprawling lava fields, wild weather and bubbling cauldrons of hot spring water at every turn.
Along the way we'll enjoy comfy guesthouses, recover with thermal baths, indulge in a wide range of local cuisine, settle into the summertime rhythm of perpetual daylight and delve into the geological marvels of one of the world's most captivating terrains.

Your flight should arrive in Reykjavik no later than 9am on the first day. This allows time for immigration, baggage claim and the one hour bus journey to downtown Reykjavik, where you’ll meet your guides and transfer to our hotel. If you arrive later than specified you will be responsible for getting yourself to our first hotel. If you arrive earlier, we recommend staying downtown - that will make it very easy to meet up with the group!
