﻿Lava tubes carve beneath the surface of Iceland like the mythical veins of the nation.

One of the most fascinating and scenic is the Leidarendi Cave, just a 30-minute drive from the capital, Reykjavik.

Leidarendi offers a portal to the underworld where you’ll discover lava fields 900 meters long and feature spectacular rock formations, from the jagged stalagmites to the splash stalactites.

Razor-like rock teeth hang above your head while you wind through the tube.

Leidarendi translates as The End of the Road, and refers to the remains found of a lamb when the cave was first discovered 2 decades ago.

The actual cave is shaped like a circle that receives no light at all. You’ll be met in pitch black. So we’ll gear up with a helmet and headlight to navigate ourselves.

Discover the wonders of the underworld while walking, with some sections requiring you to crawl. Yet the access is easy and ideal.

Icelandic ancestors once feared the lava caves, which were dark, dangerous and populated with sharp tooth-like daggers and home to many menacing myths.

**Get in touch now to reserve your place on a fascinating half-day walking tour of Leidarendi Cave in Iceland to discover stunning rock formations and chilling legends.**

Half-day walking tour of the Leidarendi Cave in Iceland, near Reykjavik

Spend a few hours exploring the magical  **Leiðarendi Cave** with one of our experienced guides. There you’ll be able to learn more about the fascinating **geological history** of this volcanic area and see a different side of  **Iceland.**

**Please keep in mind that this tour is run only on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.**

We’ll pick you up from your accommodation in **Reykjavik** and drop you around 150 meters from the cave. What we refer to as a cave is actually a **lava tube** under the ground. To gain access you’ll walk down a steep entrance. It is around 900 meters in length and formed more than 2,000 years ago from **volcanic activity.**

It’s quite dark down there, so you’ll get a helmet and a headlight to use so you can see better. There are tighter sections where you might need to crawl or crouch down. In general, though, it’s pretty comfortable.

When you are inside the lava tube, you’ll be able to take in all the **stalactites** and **drip stalagmites** which are really beautiful and unique. The eruption left minerals in the lava and as a result, you’ll see lots of different colors in the walls of the cave.

Your guide will be on hand the whole way to give you interesting information about the cave, how it was formed and a little more about the geology.

This trip is an awesome way to see the **underground volcanic terrain of Iceland**. Get in touch today to secure your spot.

The Northern Lights, also known as the Aurora Borealis, occur in the very north of the northern hemisphere when solar winds disturb charged particles in the magnetosphere.

These disturbances lead to a dazzling array of colours ranging from red and pink to yellow, green and blue. Few places on earth are better for seeing this incredible phenomenon than from Iceland.

So join one of our experienced and knowledgeable guides as we head out into the wilderness in order to try and catch a glimpse of this incredible occurrence.

Depending on the time of year, we will leave Reykjavik, the Icelandic capital, between 8:00 and 10:00 in the evening and head away from the light pollution of the city.

We will then spend the next three to four hours watching the night sky awaiting the Northern Lights to appear. Please remember, that they do not always do so and there is no guarantee that we will successfully see them.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for this incredible natural experience as we head out into the Icelandic countryside near Reykjavik to see the incredible Northern Lights!

Head off on the ultimate Icelandic experience with one of our knowledgeable guides. On this awesome trip, you’ll be able to explore the famous Golden Circle which covers some of the country’s most exceptional landscapes. Plus, you’ll get to explore the underground world in the Leiðarendi Cave.

The Golden Circle Tour is an unmissable attraction covering three locations, the **Þingvellir National Park**,  the **Haukadalur geothermal active valley** and **Gullfoss Waterfall.**

We’ll start at Þingvellir which is a **UNESCO World Heritage site.** Iceland’s first parliament, **Althing**, was formed here back in the year 930 so it holds important historical significance. It’s also geologically a really interesting place as there are two tectonic plates that meet there to create interesting landscapes.

From there we’ll move on to the **Haukadalur Valley** to see the impressive  Geysir and Strokkur geysers. The last stop on the circuit will be the breathtaking **Gullfoss Waterfall.**

For the caving portion of this awesome day out, you’ll head to **Leiðarendi Cave.** This was a lava tube that was formed thousands of years ago from thermal activity. It’s 900 meters long and has a couple of tight spots which you will need to crouch down to walk through. There is even a bit of light crawling. It’s great fun. In the cave, you’ll get to see mesmerizing stalactites and shelves and learn all about the geology of the region.

So, what are you waiting for? Get in touch today and organize your full-day of spectacular Icelandic nature around the **Golden Circle** and beyond.

If you would prefer to just spend a half-day and head to the cave, be sure you [check out our half-day trip.](https://www.explore-share.com/trip/half-day-tour-of-the-leidarendi-cave-in-iceland-near-reykjavik/)

Join one of our experienced guides on an exploration of the spectacular **Leiðarendi Cave.** Plus, enjoy a horseback riding adventure to remember.

The **horseriding** portion of this trip takes place on the terrain of the **Laxnes Horse Farm.** We’ll ride, at a gentle pace, across undulating hills, pass fantastic waterfalls and see the beautiful Icelandic scenery.

Then, we’ll explore the cave on foot without the horses. **Leiðarendi Cave** is actually a **lava tube** that was formed following an eruption thousands of years ago. Stretching out across **900 meters,** with twists and turns and wild-looking rock formations, it’s fascinating to explore.

The walk itself in the cave is relatively easy. So is the access to this **magical underground world.** However, you may have to crawl in some small sections due to the narrow passageways. The ground underneath can also be uneven.

When we’re in the cave you’ll be able to marvel at all the different colors. These colors come from the many different minerals deposited in the earth from the eruption.

This trip is a great way to enjoy and learn about the **scenery, geology and history of Iceland.**

We’ll be happy to answer any questions you have, so get in touch today and get one step closer to experiencing the best of Iceland.
