Operated by CampEasy ehf. · Keflavík, Southern Peninsula
The diesel heater clicks off and you step out into an air that tastes like mineral and salt — a sharp, clean cold that makes your breath visible as you look over black lava fields softened by green moss. Your base for the next six days is a compact 4x4 campervan: a kitchen, a bed, and the freedom to chase steam and auroras on your own schedule. From the airport shuttle at Keflavík you thread across the Reykjanes Peninsula toward bubbling mud pools, then arc inland through the Golden Circle and west across fjords where basalt columns and hidden lava tubes wait underfoot.
moderate.
6 days.
Suitable for travelers in average fitness: short walks, cave descents (uneven surfaces), and the ability to climb stairs and board a horse for introductory rides.
You must present a valid international driving license held for at least 12 months; the minimum driver age is 20.
Campsite fees are included in the package; facilities typically offer toilets, showers, and waste disposal, but amenities vary by site.
4x4 capability is provided, but many high mountain F-roads require specific vehicle types and seasonal opening; follow supplier guidance and avoid closed routes.
Aurora season runs roughly September–April; choose clear, dark nights away from town lights and monitor local forecasts for geomagnetic activity.
Fuel is not included; plan refueling stops and factor fuel costs into your budget — remote stretches have fewer stations.
Some activities have age and weight limits (e.g., minimum age 7 for certain experiences and 120 kg max weight for some activities); check each booked activity’s rules.
The west of Iceland is rich in saga-age sites — Reykhólt and Borgarfjörður preserve medieval history where chieftains and poets once lived and farmed.
Stick to marked paths and campsites to protect fragile moss and lichen; Iceland is restoring habitats and managing visitor impact through parking fees and regulated access.
