WATCH: Spanish adventurer Aniol Serrasolses takes on challenging waterfalls in Iceland

Aniol Serrasolses is used to putting his whitewater kayaking skills to the test in stunning locations such as Costa Rica’s Águas Bravas and the Villarrica volcano in Chile. However, he took it to another level with an epic voyage of discovery into the wild heart of Iceland.

Serrasolses spent three weeks hiking the unforgiving terrain with a kayak on his back. Together with his team, they again pushed themselves to the limits to try and produce something extraordinary in their dream expedition.  The land of fire and ice is home to some of the most challenging whitewater rapids and waterfalls in the world. Most are still unknown due to the almost inaccessible nature of the rivers.

Sarasola, 34, said: “It’s in nature and in the rivers where we are ourselves and feel fulfilled. I cannot think of a better place than Iceland to start over again after such a difficult year as 2020.”

Spaniard Serrasolses made a global name for himself with his previous dangerous projects down perilous flooded rivers in Portugal back in 2018 and over a 25-kilometre descent in Chile. His Chile project earlier in 2021 saw him perform a unique kayak descent over snow-capped volcanoes, finishing up in the river with a double kickflip, a manoeuvre never achieved in this sport, and that would secure him the Top Male Rider Award at the White Water Awards 2021.
