A one day hike through one of the most beautiful landscapes in Iceland. You start from the famous skógarfoss and end in Þórsmörk. On the way you'll see many stunning waterfalls and another sight of Eyjafjallajökull witch stopped all flights to and from Europe in 2010. On the path is also the volcano that started it all.

It's also possible to send the luggage to Þórsmörk from BSÍ bus terminal in Reykjavik so you don't have to carry all the stuff with you.
