Question Best Volcanoes and Glaciers Near Reykjavik

[ExploreMoreNow]

I'm heading to Reykjavik for 3-4 days and I'm curious about the best volcanoes and glaciers I can drive to. I'm looking for places that aren't overly touristy where I can enjoy some beautiful scenery. Any recommendations on specific sites or hidden gems? Would love to hear about your experiences or any tips you have for visiting these natural wonders!

For a mix of volcanoes and glaciers near Reykjavik, I'd recommend checking out Þórisjökull and Ok. Þórisjökull is a glacier-capped volcano that's less crowded and offers stunning views. For a more athletic adventure, consider hiking up to the summit of Ok, another glacier volcano with breathtaking scenery. Both are within driving distance and provide a great mix of challenge and beauty. Have you thought about what kind of gear you'll need for these hikes?
