    Vestrahorn, Iceland Trail starts easily, through the Viking Village (built as a film set) and along the beach. Gets harder as you go up the hill, lots of spongy moss! The steep descent is the hard part, over "scree" (lo...

    The trail leaves from the camp site and follows the Jökulsá river. It is reasonably well marked until the first canyon, but then we lost track of it. At the campsite there was a notice that this is a new trail and they a...
