Starting in Þórsmörk (where the Laugavegur trek ends), the incredible 23 kilometer Fimmvörðuháls trail can usually done in about 10 hours, but it’s a very demanding hike. But difficult tasks more often than not come with great rewards, and this is no exception as this hike offers one of the most fascinating landscapes you’ll ever see.
Going up and down you’ll encounter much of the amazing scenery that Iceland is famous for; Glaciers, mountains, lava fields, waterfalls and steaming volcanoes. Being up close and personal with these powerful phenomena is truly a transforming experience.
