Activity Tours - River Rafting - North West Iceland

By road no. 1, Between Reykjavík and Akureyri

Region: North West

Opening Hours:
Rafting trips run daily throughout the summer from May through September/October.

About: (Description)
Established in 1992 in response to the growing demand for action and adventure tours, Activity Tours has been a pioneer on the whitewater rafting scene in Iceland for over 15 years. Our operation is based in the north of Iceland, some 300km northeast of Reykjavík in the small village of Varmahlíð. We are easily accessible via the ringroad (hwy#1), either by car, scheduled bus from Reykjavík or Akureyri, or by domestic flights, which run between Reykjavík and Sauðárkrókur (~25km north of Varmahlíð).

The Skagafjörður region of northern Iceland is especially well suited for rafting, due in part to the number of available rivers, and to the variety of whitewater each has to offer. We operate 4 unique rafting trips on 3 different rivers, which range widely in difficulty to suit everyone from seasoned rafters to first timers. Our youngest participant to date has been 4 years old, and our oldest, 86!

How to get there:
Take road no. 1 from Reykjavík direction Akureyri. Varmahlíð is about 294 km from Reykjavík by the main road.
