What people say

"Welcome to Iceland! We arrived at 11 am and took our car. There are many rentals but the ones we found most affordable are Lotus and Blue Car Rental. We took the full insurance because of the strong wind. We recommend you doing the same even if you have to spend a bit more. At the airport there is the duty free open h24. If you have to get your drinks for the nights in the hut please buy it here! Out there the price is more than double due to iceland high taxes on alcohol. While credit card is generally accepted, take some local currency here if you want to buy souvenirs from small local shops."

"L'aeroporto principale Islandese. Da qui inizieranno tutte le vostre avventure. Possibilità di noleggiare con la maggior parte degli autonoleggi presenti sull'isola (direttamente o tramite navetta). ARRIVO: Troverete un duty free mentre percorrete la strada per uscire dall'aeroporto. E' presente anche un piccolo market appena usciti dall'area "arrivi" sulla vostra destra, dove potrete acquistare cibo, bibite, pizza, hot dog e tanto altro. Prezzi presso a poco in linea con gli standard islandesi. Presenti bagni, cambio moneta, info per bus di trasferimento per Reykjavik, taxi, autonoleggio."

"Keflavík Airport is Iceland’s international airport. It was built by the Americans during World War II, reestablished as a military base in the 1950s, and continues to expand as the number of visitors to Iceland rapidly grows. It’s now Icelandair’s hub. Expect a modern terminal and long lines at check in, immigration, and security. If you aren’t renting a car, the Airport Express and Flybus buses are the easiest ways to reach Reykjavík (about 45 minutes). A high-speed train is supposedly in the works."

Mentioned in these guides

The Laugavegur Trail is probably Iceland's most famous hiking trail that showcases some of Iceland's most stunning natural landscapes. The trail stretches approximately 55 kilometers (34mi) from Landmannalaugar to Þórsmörk. Often the trail is combined with the Fimmvörðuháls, which adds another 25 kilometers to Skógar on the ocean in the south. The terrain is extremely varied. You pass through black lava fields, along geothermal areas with steamy vents and boiling hot springs, over colorful mountains, by white glaciers, through lush green valleys and by some of Iceland's biggest waterfalls. This guide includes the route and campsites as seen in my Youtube film and is suitable for beginner and experienced backpackers. It is suitable for both camping, as well as overnighting in the refuges along the way. What this guide includes: - A flexible itinerary for different lengths and difficulty levels - Distances, best overnight (camping) options, and other useful waypoints - Custom Google Maps with all the important locations, such as campsites, grocery stores, airports, trails, public transport stops, and viewpoints - GPX-tracks of all the routes - Practical information on how to get there, how to get around, when to go, trail conditions, weather, geography, and more. - Detailed descriptions of the trekking route, including landmarks, terrain, and elevation changes.
