This is the chance to climb one of the most stunning peaks in Iceland. Hraundrangi is one of the most iconic mountains in Iceland. It is located in \u00d6xnadalur about 40 minutes south-west of Akureyri.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hraundrangi stendur \u00ed 1075m.y.s. og var fyrst klifinn \u00e1ri\u00f0 1956. Fyrir \u00fea\u00f0 var dranginn talinn \u00f3klifanlegur.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Climbing this peak takes around 7-9 hours so we recommend that people are in good shape and are not scared of heights. We start the day in Akureyri and drive to the base of the mountain, the drive takes about 40minutes. When we are ready, we start the approach to the climb, this can take 2-3hours. When we get to the base our guide will go over how the climbing gear works and how the climb is going to be. This climb is 80meters and is done in 2 pitches. Hraundrangi is made from lava rocks, moss and grass so this is not your common sandstone, basalt or granite climb. The summit is narrow and hard to put more than one person on the top at a time, that make this on of the craziest summits in Iceland.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We abseiled back down the same route that we came up.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For those staying in Reykjav\u00edk:<\/span><\/b>\u00a0Hraundrangi is 5hour drive from Reykjav\u00edk so we recommend you stay the night before and after the climbing in Akureyri town. Akureyri is the capital of North Iceland and is located on a beautiful hill in the valley Eyjafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur. There are many amazing expeditions to enjoy there so you won’t regret spending some time of your trip in Akureyri.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We can also personlize the tour to suit your needs. Give us a call or send us a mail for more info.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
