About this experience
The Adventure Park is the only park of its kind in Iceland, set within the stunning Geothermal Rift Valley of Nesjavellir. Conveniently located just 35 km from the Reykjavík capital area and only 20 km from Þingvellir National Park, it makes the perfect addition to any Golden Circle tour. Take the scenic route (road 435) through the dramatic Hengill volcanic area and add an unforgettable adventure to your day in one of Iceland's most spectacular natural settings.
The Adventure Park offers a wide range of exciting challenges suitable for all skill levels. The park features three climbing levels at heights of 1, 5, and 10 meters, as well as a thrilling zip line, the Quick Flight free-fall experience, and a spectacular 12-meter-high Giant Swing.
The minimum age for participation is 6 years. Children under 130 cm in height must be accompanied and assisted by an adult on the course, as they may not be able to reach the safety cable independently.
Your safety is our top priority. We use the state-of-the-art Edelrid Smart Belay X safety system, ensuring a secure and enjoyable experience high above the ground.

We found this place after our teen boys declared that they wouldn’t stop at another waterfall. They had had so much fun, this place is definitely worth it. Pay the extra to try the big swing, it made my adult man giggle uncontrollably.

Perfect activity for group of friends and also family for many occasions. Been there 3 times and always good memories that comes with the stay. The staff is really helpful and patient with everything. The climb pole can be really heavy but the staff made me feel safe and everything was good 👍 You definitely get your adrenaline high and your fear of high is maybe not gone but you could feel you accomplished alot. Takk fyrir ómetanlega daga og minningar 🤍
