Landscape of The Highlands

The Highlands

A brief summer world of raw color and complete quiet.

Iceland's uninhabited interior opens for only a few weeks a year. Expect color, steam, river crossings and silence.

Best time
Late June to early September only.
Getting there
4x4 on F-roads or with a super-jeep guide.
Where to stay
Mountain huts and a few remote lodges.
