We have been considering a vacation to Iceland in 2023 and just learned about the day tours to Greenland. This looks awesome!
Very beautiful region in Iceland.We did a glacier tour with a funny guide of the Mountain Guides about 3,5 hours. It was awesome, he told us quiet a lot about all aspects of Vatnajökull. First we got a lift on a bumpy road near the glacier, security instructions etc.and had always enough time to take photos .We walked about 3 - 4 km.
Very dangerous equipment to use never buy a Bothy Bag any emergency shelter tent or what ever you use if it doesn’t keep you dry you should never ever use it if you don’t care about your health or your life then use a Bothy Bag.
Why?

How often weather is so bad that you have to skip entire day of hike and stay at camp? I mean how many days in Iceland I need to secure entire hike :)
0:48 could you write me the name's map? (publisher) Where I could buy thiat map? thank you
@Antifaole thank you!!!!!
@Antifaole Unfortunately the book is out of print. I found a topographical map by the same author. Sooner or later I will find it. I hope. Thanks!
@Antifaole Yes, I found the German edition. I believe I will buy it. I also studied German for 3 years, although I don't really remember it very much. Thanks for your help!
Hello, how long it would tike for un average biker: I suppose it is doable in one day?
Jón Þór Gunnarsson is this company owner. ARTIC ADVENTURES BEWARE; DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. TIP FOR TRAVELLERS THAT WONT TO BE STOLEN IN ICELAND. Jón Þór Gunnarsson is the company owner. Company have a CEO ( how strange ... ) but he problably golf or sleep to much or just like to do the way they act on the company, Vikingur type. Maybe it is the Icelandic way to do the things. ..... The name is Jón Þór Gunnarsson . Running a company with customers at the door asking for services is one thing, but when things get bad there, you need special management qualities and skills to counter the bad results. It is at these times that the difference between good management skills and crap is noticeable. This company is a trap. They will take your money and will not produce the service. Beware. You really have other options. You dont need a company to do 95% of the tours in Iceland. Just rent a car and go. You spare a lot of money and dont have to deal with lack of competence and lack of honesty.
Hello how it organize? Is any direct path between Laki and Landmannalaugar?

Very interesting trip!
I love u Iceland
you can use an old family outer tent for the same purpose.
Probably in some circumstances, but with the shape of the bothy compared to a regular tent, the bothy is easier to hold down and avoid wind quickly without any need for pegs, therefore being a safer emergency option. Also the orange is a plus for rescue.
muy guay:)
Skitouren in Grönland, ein Traumerlebnis. Man sagt auch, Grönland sei erst vor 20 Jahren aus der Steinzeit erwacht.
This is amazing!
Great video! Vital pieces of equipment. The ability of bothy bags to turn into a sail is not to be underestimated. Maybe good if you are kayaking. Not so good if you lose your grip and see it sailing away over the mountains (I bought another).

Not a Jeep . Its a Land Rover defender .
In Iceland we call real suv a jeep
I want to go there!
A nice review thank you. Interesting hearing you say we have a worse climate here in Scotland. Having been to Iceland camping (in summer) and as short stay tourist in winter I can agree with you! I have a review of a 2-man Karrimor bothy bag on my main hiking channel(Terry McGeary) When I find it I will drop you a link here if you don’t mind.

These things are great for operating ham radio on mountain summits in the winter. The 2-person has plenty of room for me and my equipment.
Is the ventilation enough to avoid condensation? For example if you use a 8-10 person shelter-bag (roughly 200x140cm) and you sleep either one of two people?
