  • As with my previous Albatros adventures, this trip to Iceland has been an unforgettable experience. We were fortunate to enjoy exceptionally good weather, which made exploring Iceland’s stunning landscapes even more special.

  • My first marathon. My second time in Iceland. And without a doubt… my most unforgettable memory. Every moment of this journey was pure magic. Thank you, Gege, Albatros team, for this extraordinary experience.

  • A marathon for vikings and non-vikings😅
    Another fantastic Adventure with Albatros :-) great organization and the location- fabulous
  • What an amazing place to run! Otherworldly beauty, a gigantic volcano rim with distant views (when the clouds would allow it), and the earth making eerie sounds when you are alone in the quiet of lava fields. I am just a regular runner and did the Half. It was a challenge for me, but I was so thankful for the beauty we were privileged to experience, as some areas are off-limits to the general public.

  • This was my 4th experience with Albatros, except for the weather, the course and the landscapes are fantastic, always a very good organization of Albatros.
