Itinerary description

We hiked around the interior, and then to Lake Thingvallavatn (þingvallavatn). Thingvallavatn is the largest natural lake in Iceland and, amazingly, home to four different species of char.

I recorded video periodically throughout the hike, sped up and smoothed the clips, and joined them together into a time lapse of sorts. Check out the link on the right.

    A pretty hike. The trails at the lake front were muddy and narrow, but the rest of the paths were relatively smooth. Thanks for tracing it.
