DAILY DEPARTURES FROM MAY – SEPTEMBER

Our partners have decades of rafting experience and will keep things safe as you raft Hvítá, one of the big glacial rivers in Iceland. It will be wet and wild and, at the same time, a unique opportunity to enjoy the land’s beauty from a totally different perspective. Feel the river’s force as it carries you through the canyon shaped in centuries with the same forces. You will undoubtedly get wet, and your adrenaline will kick in. Rafting in Hvítá has been practised since 1985 and is popular among locals. 

For the fit and brave, there is the option to ride an inflated Kevlar kayak. Participants must be at least 11 years old to raft and 16 years old to ride the kayak.

Hvítá is one of the big glacial rivers in Iceland. It has been rafted since 1985. It’s classified as a 2+ rafting river, easily or moderately accessible for most people. You can book a transfer and be picked up in the Reykjavík area or meet your rafting guides at the base camp. Hvítá is in the heart of the Golden Circle area, and you can raft the river on your road trip before or after visiting the waterfall Gullfoss and the hot spring area Geysir.

In the booking process you can choose your pickup location in Reykjavík based on your accommodation location.

Note: Hvítá is in the heart of the Golden Circle area. If you have a car you can raft the river on your road trip before or after visiting the waterfall Gullfoss and the hot spring area Geysir. In that case you can book your trip without pickup.
