Itinerary description

The track leads from Dyngjufell-hut to Botni; at the beginning on a marked jeep-track through an area of grey ash and pebbles, later over expanded fields of Pāhoehoe-Lava, where it is sometimes hard to find the track, which is marked by cairns. Apart from a small stream near Dyngjufell-hut and the spring of Suðurá near Botni there is no drinking water on the way.
