The Standard tour takes you to the part of the tunnel that is easily accessible for most people and the journey last approximately 55 - 60 minutes (also available with transfer). The Lava Falls Adventure tour is for the true explorers that want to take on adventures tour to the bottom of the cave. The tour is approximately 3-4 hours in the tunnel. A journey into Raufarhólshellir is a unique experience and a great opportunity to witness the inner workings of a volcanic eruption as one walks in the path of lava that flowed during the Leitahraun eruption, which occurred east of the Bláfjöll mountains about 5200 years ago. Every winter spectacular ice sculptures are formed inside the entrance of the cave making the experience of visiting the lava tunnel even more breathtaking. The lava tunnel, known in Iceland as Raufarhólshellir, measures 1,360 metres (4,460 ft) long, with a typical height of at least 10 metres (33 ft) and width up to 30 metres (98 ft). The cave has multiple skylights, or holes in the ceiling, under which snow accumulates. The cave also hosts microbial mats containing a variety of microorganisms, including actinobacteria and acidobacteria. Lava tubes are a natural conduit formed when an active low-viscosity lava flow develops a continuous and hard crust, which thickens and forms a roof above the still-flowing lava stream.
