Experience the thrill and beauty of the glacier river Hvítá situated at the heart of the Golden Circle. Don’t miss out on this great adventure!

Come join us and experience the power of the river. Grab your paddle & let’s go get wet!

From Gullfoss waterfall a glorious canyon descends down and creates the ideal rafting conditions. The Hvítá river originates from Langjökull glacier and has a perfectly balanced mix of serene canyons and adrenaline pumping waves and rapids. On this beautiful rafting journey, you’ll raft down 7 kilometres (4.3 miles). You’ll enjoy a view you can only encounter while floating downstream.

You don’t need to worry about the cold water. We provide a wetsuit to make the experience enjoyable, as well as a lifejacket to keep you afloat. You need no previous rafting experience. In fact, this rafting trip is for everyone who fancies a little adventure.

If you want, you can take a refreshing leap from the Brúarhlöð cliffs into the glacial waters of the canyon – it’s a fitting end to an incredible river rafting adventure.

Rafting the river takes between 60 and 90 minutes. Afterwards, you have time to relax in the Drumbó Base’s sauna and hot tubs. We recommend adding a delicious BBQ lamb or hamburger dinner to your booking for you to enjoy at the base restaurant. (We can add this at booking time).
