Extreme kayaking in Iceland
Photos/ Aniol and Gerd Serrasolses
Icelandic waterfalls and rivers are legion but there are not a lot of people that do kayaking in Iceland. One exception are the Spanish Serrasolses brothers, Aniol and Gerd. They visited Iceland this past summer and created an incredible video about their exploits of kayaking in Iceland.
The brothers were interviewed by the Stuck in Iceland website recently on the thrill of kayaking in Iceland.
"There’s really no place like it, sometimes it feels like being on another planet. From the epic views in the highlands to the amazing volcanic fields, the black sand beaches. Iceland is stunning!"
