Not too physically demanding, but still enough to be considered a hike. It was very short for the amount of money you pay unfortunately.

Our visit to Raufarhólshellir was truly enjoyable. Initially hesitant due to young children, we took the chance and loved it! A unique experience exploring a lava tunnel below the Earth's surface. Highly recommended! 👏
