There unmarked hiking trails link the beautiful fjords and bays of this uninhabited area. If you're looking for an Iceland trip unlike any other, you've come to the right spot!

Why Travel With Us
Morgan Knowles
This was an epic adventure of all epic adventures!!!!! So much nature you would need to stay for a lifetime to see it all. It was also what I would like to call a multi-sense experience, EVERYTHING was engaged, sight, smell, touch, hearing taste, and the mind.
Joe Jermain
The amount of knowledge you receive about your location, the folklore, your guides' attitude and personality are all key points on how they run. If you're only interested in the activities, then get ready to push your limits doing some of the most exhilarating activities. Bottom line, there is something for all; and Beyond the Map is the choice to make
