A way to explore Reykjanes
The Volcano Circle brings the peninsula’s volcanoes, geothermal areas, sea cliffs and local communities into one connected journey. It is a starting point for exploring at your own pace, whether you have a day to spare or want to choose a few places along the way.
Fire, sea and everyday life
The landscape is only part of the story. Alongside lava fields and steaming ground are fishing communities, coastal landmarks and the places where people make sense of Iceland’s natural forces. Our destination pages bring those different perspectives together.
Your circle, your pace
Our Reykjavík route starts and finishes at Perlan. Arriving at Keflavík Airport? Choose the airport itinerary and travel around the peninsula toward Reykjavík. You do not need to visit every stop or follow one fixed schedule.
Plan with the landscape
Use the route overview to understand the journey, the interactive map to locate each stop, and our itineraries and guides to plan your day. Check current access, road conditions and weather before travelling.
