Where to go
Iceland is a country of stunning natural beauty, best explored by car. This allows you to plan your own route and stop at places that interest you the most. Renting a car in Iceland is easy, though not cheap. There are many rental companies near the airport. It is worth choosing a car with slightly higher suspension, which will cope with uneven terrain. There are many car routes in Iceland to choose from, depending on the time you have for sightseeing and your interests. A popular route is Road 1 along the south coast, which leads through places such as: Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls, beaches in Vík, Vatnajökull glacier, Hekla, Katla and Eyjafjallajökull volcanoes, Landmannalaugar rainbow mountains and numerous canyons for example Fjaðrárgljúfur (in the photo). On the way back to Reykjavík, you can see the impressive Strokkur geyser and the rift between two continental plates in Þingvellir National Park. Thanks to mobility, you can also easily reach smaller, hidden treasures of Iceland, which appear on the map with surprising frequency. A road trip around Iceland is a truly unforgettable experience. With so much natural beauty to see, you're sure to have a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
