Mega Zipline Day Trip in Iceland with Transfer from Reykjavik
Fly a full kilometer above Icelandic canyons, waterfalls, and rivers on the longest zipline in Iceland.
The Mega Zipline Iceland delivers a full-kilometer aerial ride over one of Iceland's most dramatic natural corridors, starting at the basalt-edged Black Canyon and finishing above the Reykjadalsá river. Round-trip transfer from Reykjavik is included, making this one of the most accessible adventure experiences in the country. The difficulty level is moderate, and the tour is designed to accommodate families as well as solo travelers.
Participants are fitted into a specially designed harness for the conventional seated ride, which keeps the body upright and allows for unobstructed views of the surrounding landscape throughout the descent. The starting point — the Black Canyon — features columnar basalt formations and active waterfalls that create a striking natural backdrop before the ride begins.
The zipline concludes near Reykjadalur Cafe at the Reykjadalsá river, a calm and scenic endpoint that offers a natural contrast to the speed of the ride itself. Guests who wish to upgrade to the prone superman-style ride, known as the Falcon, may inquire about availability directly at the reception upon arrival. This optional upgrade is subject to availability and carries an additional fee payable on-site.
The transfer from Reykjavik is operated by Reykjavik Excursions and runs from BSI Bus Terminal. The bus follows a shared route that stops at the Lava Tunnel before continuing to Hveragerði, where passengers board the dedicated Mega Zipline shuttle for the final short drive to the site.
