Hike & Zipline Adventure in Vík, South Coast

Overview

Enjoy a thrilling experience as you zipline through forests and above canyons and waterfalls near the coastal town of Vík. This challenging, exciting, and safe adventure includes a scenic hike and four zipline rides. The zipline routes, called Little Rush, Gentle Giant, Leap of Faith, and Big Rush, all offer a stunning bird's-eye view of Iceland's beloved scenery, including that of Hundafoss (Dog's Waterfall) and Grafargil (Grave Canyon).

You'll start with a drive to the zipline area, followed by a short hike to the platform of the first route, Little Rush, which takes you above the river canyon. Next up is Gentle Giant, the longest run at nearly 800 feet (240 m) long. Many zipliners agree that this stretch is the prettiest!  

To complete the adventure, you'll enjoy another quick hike through the impressive rock formations of the canyon, leading you to the Leap of Faith route. The final zip of the day is the Big Rush, which stretches above the powerful waterfall.
