A marked track leading from the Dreki-hut westward over the massif Dyngjufjöll to the caldera of Askja. Descending from the mountain you have a fascinating view over Öskjuvatn and Víti. In summer 2014 this path was tempo...
The track leads from Dyngjufell-hut to Botni; at the beginning on a marked jeep-track through an area of grey ash and pebbles, later over expanded fields of Pāhoehoe-Lava, where it is sometimes hard to find the track, wh...
10kms We have started to record only after we reached the edge of the volcano. We started to follow the yellow path for a while to admire the lava 'sculptures' and then diverged to take the route to the Hverfjall and cli...

We tried to get to the top of Þorvaldstindur (1516 m) mountain starting from Vikraborgir Car Park where people leave the car to get to Viti. Unfortunately we had to turn around about 400 meters before the summit because ...
Short walk from Dimmuborgir car park to Hverfjall. Ascent to Hverfjall is little bit difficult, easy way to the ridge is from the opposit side.
Extraordinary walk with outstanding views, geological spots (hotspots, sulfuric steams...) The path is marked all way with yellow sticks. Not recommended if foggy days. Beware of steep slopes
From Bræðrafell following the marked path to Askja. In the beginning you have to cross several blocklava-flows; if it rains that's rather exhausting. Later you walk through an desertic area of aa-lava, boulders and dust,...
I recorded only the return. Little walk beginning of August with close to 0C, snow and a little wind...
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 tr...
The best trip in Áskja region started at Dreki campsite. Following the yellow sticks you climb up to Áskja caldera ridge. From this part is nice view to Herdubreid and you can see a lot of amazing rocky formations. From ...

Hiking-path from Thorsteinskáli to Bræðrafell-hut cross through the lavafield of Ódáðahraun. From the north-eastern foothill of Herðubreið I did not follow the marked path around the mountain, but walked directly to Bræð...
A loop around the pseudocraters of Skútustaðir isn't the most exciting hike I've done near Mývatn, but it's a very enjoyable hike nonetheless. Pseudocraters are formed when lava flows over marshy ground, trapping water b...

Beautiful walk in Asbyrgi national park, where stunning basalt rocks and new-age volcano mountains line the route.
Starting point is at Hverir car park. Through the hot mud spots you can follow the yellow stick to the Námafjall. From this point is nice "aerial" view to Hverir. Following the yellow stick you can finish the round trip ...

The trails starts on the parking lot of Grjótagjá. When crossing the street the path is found easily and leads through beautiful and scenic landscapes to Hverfjall visitor center and parking lot. When we did the hike it ...
Amazing walk along the tephra ring of the Hverfell volcano. Breathtaking views of Lake Myvatn and Dimmuborgir lava field.
Steep descent after the Dettifoss fall with a rope, pleasant hike from there on with a few challenging passages (rocks)
Walk through the lava field of Dimmuborgir. The walk goes out of the best marked and easy trails and passes through arches and small caves but it is quite easy to follow.
Nice short walk on the hills with good views on the area. Be sure to wear mountain shoes or boits because it may be sleepery.
