Exploring ancient wonders!
This adventure is rated 1 out of 5 with a hike that is a 4 out of 5 difficulty level. This means that adventurers should be comfortable hiking 10+ miles with elevation gain/loss of 3k+ feet. This trip requires that you carry only a day pack and accommodations are in lodges, mountain huts and/or hotels. Highest elevation on the trail does not exceed 9k feet. Training for this adventure should be taken seriously.
*The Acatenango volcano hike is the only reason why this adventure is rated at a 4 on the difficulty scale. The hike is considered challenging but manageable for those with moderate fitness level. The trail is steep with loose gravel in some sections and can by physical demanding. It takes approximately 4.5 to 6 hours to hike, and the elevation and potential for altitude sickness make it challenging.
We love a good road trip so that's why we put together the ULTIMATE road trip for you to explore one of our most favorite places in the world - Iceland! Come with us on this exciting 10 day/9 night trip around Iceland's iconic Ring Road where you will get to experience the country's most impressive waterfalls, play on black sand beaches, walk across a huge glacier, explore quaint villages, and so much more!
