Planning Your Iceland Adventure

Best Time to Visit

Summer (June-August) offers midnight sun and accessible highlands. Winter (November-March) brings Northern Lights and ice caves. Shoulder seasons offer fewer crowds.

Getting Around

The Ring Road (Route 1) connects most destinations. A 4WD is essential for highlands and F-roads. Many day trips are available from Reykjavik.

Weather Tips

Iceland's weather is famously unpredictable. Pack layers, waterproof outer wear, and sturdy footwear. Conditions can change rapidly throughout the day.

Safety First

Stay on marked paths, respect barriers, and never underestimate nature's power. Check road conditions at road.is and weather at vedur.is before traveling.
