I had trained hard and planned carefully. It would be virtually impossible to plan a trip here that wasn’t brilliant! Iceland is one of the greatest places I have ever been. I hope these help if you are planning a trip. We bought our maps from Dick Phillips, Whitehall House, Nenthead, Alston, Cumbria CA9 3PS (01434) 381440.We used Alpacka Llama packrafts and carried all our food and kit for a month.Glacier travel is also potentially dangerous. We portaged round parts that were beyond our skill levels. The rivers are quite dangerous in parts.We walked the Landmannlaugur trail then paddled the Markarfljót to the sea. We walked south from Akureyri, over the highlands to the Hofsjökull glacier, then down the Þjórsá river. ![]() But I get so many questions about this Iceland trip that here are a few facts for anyone wanting to do something similar: I deliberately never talk about maps and routes on my website.
