Itinerary description

This part is dangerous, don't cross the river there.

It's part of a 20 days hike. Beware it's not the normal north south Iceland Hike. It's mostly offtrail, there are one extremly difficult river to cross and 20km on a glacier.
There are a few dangers, I put tag on the track, but I'm not sure it's 100% acurate, because I made it from memory. I also put tag for water, but in case of water from snow it doesn't mean it will work for you too.
In any case I'am not responsable if anything happen to anyone who follow this track.
If you have question don't hesitate.
