This is a day trip allowing you to experience two activities, hiking and wakeboarding while being surrounded by stunning views. We will be able to provide snorkeling gear to experience crystal clear water of Vatnadalsvatn too. We highly recommend it as a full day adventure activity. During the day your guide will be happy to tell stories of history, folklore and life in our small town. After meeting the guide will provide required information and gear for the guests.

After reaching the lake your guide will set up towing gear for wakeboarding. We will ride 1 person at a time.

5.00Justas was amazing with our family! We booked the wakeboard/SUP private tour but when we arrived, the weather was not ideal. He quickly pivoted and took us to several amazing local sites. We saw whales and seals and breathtaking scenery. We also stopped for delicious hot chocolate, coffee and fresh blueberry pie at a delightful historic farmhouse. It was a great day despite the rain!
Amazing tour!

5.00Amazing day full of adventure and fun. Being able to wake board in a remote alpine lake is truly breathtaking, something I would never have thought possible. Justas was a great guide and helped my partner get up and wake board for the first time. Would definitely recommend to anyone spending time in the west fjordlands
Exceptional experience

5.00Excellent first wakeboarding experience! The trip was stoning, surrounded by the Icelandic pristine landscapes, Justas told us stories about the place, the nature and animals. Being my first time doing this sport was bit tricky but the team was super helpful and made my experience incredible fun! Totally recommended if you want to try something different that the normal outdoor trips!
Full day adventure !!

5.00An amazing day out! Justas was a great guide and showed us how to work the winch as well as offer wakeboarding tips. The lake was stunning and off the main tourist paths! Such a fun adventure in the Westfjords! Wakeboarding is class!
