River Fun - Rafting in Iceland

River rafting on Hvita

River rafting on the Hvita river very close to Geysir in Iceland.

River difficulty 2 out of 5.

We started rafting the Hvita River (pronounced Kveetau) about 25 years ago and this adventure activity has been growing in popularity in Iceland ever since. The Hvita river is beautiful and great for rafting on, and it's only a little more than one hour from Reykjavík. The river has a perfectly balanced mix of serene canyons and adrenaline pumping waves and rapids. On our way we pass through the magnificent Bruarhlod canyon and in that amazing scenery you have the option of jumping from a cliff into the river.  Can anyone resist jumping into an Icelandic glacier river?

No one should leave Iceland without experiencing river rafting in our powerful rivers and lay eyes on the scenic canyons of Hvita river... And afterwards there is nothing better than relaxing in our sauna an hot tubs after a massive day of adventure.

Do the tour in a canoe instead.
