Iceland Mixed-Surface Cycling Vacation

July 14 - 21, 2025
(or beyond? - you can always stay longer!)

We first visited Iceland in 2018 and instantly fell in love with how different it was to anything we'd encountered before. We'd like to take you to another planet. The steaming hillsides, lava beaches, endless moss and the waterfalls are just a few of the countless things we'd like to experience with you by bike.

This vacation can't guarantee warmth, however, we'll show you some amazing vistas and immerse you in Iceland's rich history regardless of the weather.

Our theme for this vacation is 'Embrace the Adventure:  We'll ride when we can and do cool stuff regardless.'

Join us this summer July 14 - July 21 2025.

July 14th Departure from Calgary flying DIRECT!
July 21st Arrival back in Calgary on a DIRECT flight home, or have the option to stay and continue exploring!
(See flight details below)

This vacation will be $5,500 CDN + GST.

This is based on double occupancy. Single occupancy is an option, however, we will have to determine the cost.

  • Everything Will Be Taken Care Of...

    Let us do the planning so you can do the enjoying. Rides, all meals, airport transfers, upkeep of your bike while there, coaching, guiding, experienced awesome support, local street cred, sooo many photo ops, drone footage, friends that love to do what you do!

  • Recommended Ability and Equipment:

    The Doctrine holds several cycling vacation that have NO ability criteria other than the ability to ride safely. This pavement/gravel/lava vacation requires an increased level of technique and skill due to the nature of the roadway as well as a slightly higher level of experience due to the inherent harder terrain. We will also stipulate at a minimum a recent gravel bike with the ability to mount 47mm or wider tubeless tires.

The Experience

Here is what we are proud to have developed.
Our flagship vacation is based out of the roads East of Iceland's capital Reykjavik and includes roads that will challenge you physically, but captivate you mentally. This should be considered an 'adventure' vacation for cyclists willing to adapt. First and foremost, this is a cycling vacation, however, it will differ from our other vacations in that the rides will be shorter in duration so we can experience other aspects of the phenomenal countryside. We'll have something for most abilities, however, we would classify this as an intermediate level vacation. We don't take cyclists anywhere 'ordinary' and once again, the endless awesome here is really hard to put in to words.
