Set near Lake Mývatn, at the divergent boundaries of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, the Iceland Volcano Marathon route will be run directly in the North Volcanic Zone.

It’s a hot bed of geothermal activity with geysers, hot springs, and lava rock – what’s more, the volcanic zone is still very much active!

With the massive Hverfjall crater as the focus of the route, runners will pass through soft, black volcanic sand the route traverses single-track trail, plains of lava rock, and several minor volcano craters.  

Runners can choose between marathon, half marathon or quarter marathon.

See you in Iceland in 2024!
