Description
Begin your cycling adventure at Nauthólsvík, Reykjavík’s beloved geothermal beach. With golden sand, a warm lagoon, and views over the Atlantic, it’s the perfect place to breathe in the sea air and gear up for the ride ahead.
Pedal into Fossvogsdalur, a serene green valley cradled between Reykjavík and Kópavogur. Cruise through soft meadows, shady birch trees, and peaceful streams. The coastal breeze from Fossvogur bay adds a refreshing touch to this gentle and relaxing stretch.
Next, roll into Elliðaárdalur – a nature-lover’s dream within city limits. Follow the rushing Elliðaá river through lava landscapes, waterfalls, and quiet forest paths. In summer, you might spot salmon leaping upstream. It’s raw Icelandic nature with a city zip code.
Cruise toward Geirsnef, where wide open spaces line the riverbank and locals gather to walk, grill, or play. It’s the perfect spot to take a breather, stretch your legs, or snap a scenic photo with Mount Esja towering in the distance.
Your journey continues into Laugardalur, a lively recreation area known for its botanical gardens, geothermal pools, and public art. The bike paths here are broad and tree-lined — ideal for a smooth ride through one of Reykjavík’s most active neighborhoods.
Shift gears and follow Sæbraut, Reykjavík’s iconic seaside route. Ride along the shoreline with sweeping views over Faxaflói Bay, passing sculptures like the Sun Voyager and catching glimpses of distant mountains. This breezy stretch is coastal cycling at its best.
Roll into Reykjavík’s vibrant downtown, where culture, color, and creativity fill the streets. Stop for a hot dog at Bæjarins Beztu, check out local street art, or grab a coffee before heading back toward the sea.
Complete the loop where it began — at the calm and beautiful Nauthólsvík. Dip your toes in the warm water, relax on the sand, or just take a deep breath and enjoy the view. You’ve cycled through the soul of Reykjavík and returned to the sea.
