We start by going up forested area, not really forested to any standard except Icelandic standards. The trail goes towards Trolla Kirkja (Troll’s Church), Goes around Tindfjöll (Peaky Mountains) and ends with an overview cliff called Útigönguhöfði. Where Mýrdalsjökull glacier can be seen and often heard through the valleys as icebergs fall off cliffs and echo through the valley. Rjúpnafell (Mount Ptarmigan) can be added to this trail to get a fantastic 360° of the area and the three glaciers around. As it is steep to go to the top this part will be evaluated with every group. Hiking Distance: Approx. 8 km (5 miles) With Rjúpnafell Approx. 10 km (6 miles) Elevation Gain: 300 m (1000 ft) With Rjúpnafell Approx. 500 m

A small mountain with diverse fauna and flowers. While it is small it makes for a really nice hike for the last day. We will make it into a loop hike, go up and over Valahnúkur, check out Snorraríki Cave and either take the longer route or go to Sönghellir cave as well. On top of Valahnúkur, you can see the texture of Eyjafjallajökull glacier, beautiful shades of blue and black. Parts of the eruption from 2010 can also be seen from that 360° panorama viewpoint. On this camping trip, we will have a spacious kitchen tent for up to 10 guests and one guide. Where some of the finest ingredients you can find in Iceland will be served in a style of homecooked food in the mountains. It takes four hours to reach Þórsmörk and we will be going by a scheduled bus. The busses are modified to be able to drive through rivers, and we will drive through many different glacial-fed rivers during the last hour of the drive.
