Stykkisholmur
After lots of riding and driving we have reached this small town of Stykkisholmur. The camping ground is enormous, but the facilities are few for the many people camped here. A few toilets (nice and clean) and a couple of showers---outdoor and very cold in the mornings!!!! The water is warm, but the air is cold!!!!

The highlight of the trip so far for me was the trip up Snaesfelljokur in the snowcat machine to see the midnight sun. So cold!!! So beautiful, and a wonderfully rally like road to get up to the starting point. Rallying at 15 kph!!!!!! It seems really weird for it to be so daylight at midnight!!! Hope the photos give you an idea,

Did you walk up to the top leaving your backpacks behind? And what on earth is the dark area on the left of the summit? Looks a bit like some mountain goat or ? on the laptop screen. Eagerly awaiting the next blog. Rebecca
ReplyDeleteWe took the snow cat vehicle to the top. The dark bit at the top is exposed rock.
