Rainy and windy on the way towards Krísuvík. But better on the way back. On a good day it´s ideal to cycle from Reykjavik and hike Mt. Sveifluháls.

Our trip to Iceland, organised with Guy Gutraiman (http://www.iceland.co.il http://www.anothericeland.com).
50% Road 50% F Road 8days Track that goes around Iceland passing by the most important tourist points and campings. Amazing experience ! We had a Suzuki Jimny for 2 persons
If you follow the markings, after the Austurengjahver geothermal area, you enter water territory, so be prepared and wear waterproof shoes. We didn´t do the entire length of the path, we stopped when the hike crossed wi...

Hike over the Fagradalsfjall volcanoes complex. Everything starts from the P1 parking area. Reference: https://www.visitreykjanes.is/en/volcano-eruption/eruption-information/hiking-and-parking
One way volcano-parking (but you can walk both ways since it is the same path) with the new path. Easy walk but be careful of the rocks!
Parking lot to area of fresh lava activity along Path C. Volcano was active at the time. The round trip distance is given, even though the label says that it's not round-trip. (Not sure how to edit that)
this is the new track which leads to the 2022 eruption site in Meradalir Wear good clothes, it might be very windy on the ridge.
Be aware that going up after crossing the small river just after the geothermal area can get extremely slippery. If the soil is wet it becomes very muddy and will be difficult going up and down to Hverafjall.
This track takes you from the Suðurstrandarvegur road to the volcano eruption site in Geldingadalir. This is the west side track that should be followed if the wind is blowing from the North or North East
DISCLAIMER: I don't recommend going up through the southeast path as we did. The terrain was very loose and the path was not clear in some places due to some landslides. In my opinion following the main path is better.
Rockwille was a old Radar station from 1952 and lots of old antenna roads to antennas. https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Rockville_Air_Station_(Iceland)
