About Northern Lights Trek 2025

Would you like to tick something off your bucket list and spend 3 days trekking through beautiful mountain scenery, geothermal valleys and via picture-perfect lakes. The trek will be challenging; hiking across snow-covered landscapes and conquering local mountain passes. However, the chance of witnessing the dancing lights of the Aurora Borealis will hopefully make your efforts all worthwhile. You will then celebrate your achievements in the bright lights of Reykjavík! The land of fire and ice on this memorable long weekend adventure!

Location

This trek takes place in Iceland.
