Frequently asked questions

How intense is quad biking through the Mývatn Nature Reserve?
The terrain is volcanic and uneven, with lava fields and crater rims that demand constant attention. It's not extreme speed riding, but navigating raw Icelandic landscape on an ATV keeps your adrenaline running for the full 2 hours.
Do I need quad biking experience to join?
No. The tour is listed as 'Everybody welcome', meaning Geo Travel accommodates complete beginners. Guides brief you on controls before you set off.
What's the most intense moment of the ride?
Crossing open lava fields with unobstructed views of the volcanic caldera is where most riders feel the full weight of the landscape. The combination of isolation, raw terrain and the scale of the geology around Lake Mývatn is the peak moment.
Is the tour available year-round?
No season dates are listed, so contact Geo Travel directly to confirm availability for your travel dates, especially in winter when road and weather conditions in northern Iceland can be extreme.
