Itinerary description
Hiking from Grindarskörð to Hlíðarvatn. There is no water to be found on this trail so hikers have to carry all the drinking water.

This is an easy hike through magnificent fields of lava. At the very last part of the hike is a pretty steep slope that is probably tricky to manoeuvre in snow or extremely wet conditions.
The whole route is clearly marked by easy-to-spot cairns.
Don't get burned by the lack of water, bring at least 2 liters.

Beautiful trail through stunning landscape.
The final descent, down a ravine, is steep but fairly easy if one is careful.
