Hvannadalshnúkur: Iceland’s best
Anyone who loves nature and walking in the mountains appreciates the opportunity to reach the highest peaks. What is “most” has the power of attraction like a magnet. It arouses interest and draws attention. Especially when we are talking about the highest mountains. Whether it’s a country, a continent, or even the world.
Camping in Iceland

Waterfalls in Iceland
As Icelanders often like to say: ,,Iceland is the best country in almost everything per capita.” You could easily say that Iceland has the most waterfalls…per capita. Even this is of course just a joke, you can find waterfalls almost literally everywhere in Iceland. Some of them are hidden or hard to access, in some cases you can park your car straight under the waterfall.
Food for a multi-day hike
Packing up for a several-day trip, especially if it will be a mountain trip or you intend to mostly hike, is quite a logistically demanding task. First, because there is no such thing as “too much food” on a hike. Food is always useful, if only because – if we do not eat ourselves – we can rescue our companions with a sandwich or a piece of chocolate.
Volcano Hike
One of the main characteristics of Iceland is its unpredictable nature. Which is why so many of us adventurers are so passionate about this land.

Lifetime experience at Geldingadalir
Since the first big earthquakes started in February 2021 I was hoping for something new, big and changing to happen. And three weeks after it really did. On the night of 19th of March, an eruption started. I was in downtown Reykjavík in the bar with my friends at the time. Well, one more reason to celebrate. When I woke up the next day I was excited and I knew I wasn’t the only one. Many people went to see the eruption that day. I wanted too.
