- South to North through Icelands remote Highlands: crossing Iceland on Route 35 ( F35 ) on a motorcycle.
There are only two routes that connect the southern and northern Iceland directly. Two routes that cross the highlands, the heart of the country. It sounded like adventure was calling - and we decided to take one of these routes. Join our trip on the famous route 35 ( Kjölur Route or Kjalvegur Road ) - a motorcycle ride through the heart of Iceland, to hot springs and to rough beauty. A guide on traversing Iceland.

Welcome Lea.👋👋
Listening to your story telling is like listening to great poetry. Lovely.
Ohhh thank you, what a compliment!
Your current series is the best motorrad Icelandic vlog I have seen. All your vlogs are so well done. I cannot understand why you do not have 1M subscribers. All the best. 🇨🇦
That is one spectacular country! Everywhere you look, it's beautiful.
That’s definitely how it is! Crossing Iceland was really an adventure.
Your videos are always beautiful. Thank you
Thank you so much!
Hi Lea,
What a beautiful episode once again.
I have learned a lot watching this journey about this crazy, wild, amazing country. Thanks for taking us along.
Safe travels, and greetings to Little A and your partner. May all of you be well.
See you in the next one. ❤
Thank you so much! Yes, there are so many places to discover in Iceland - and I just saw some of them!
Great as allways 🙏 thank you ✌️
Thank you for watching!
Lea, I’ll it say again, your drone footage is absolutely amazing! This has been a nice weekly experience. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much! I am
Trying my best!
your videos are always over the top. THANKS Lea
Thanks so much! ☺️
I have also started my channel which will be related to moto vlogging and journey to beautiful destination. My channel is very new so it won't look exciting, but i wanted to say tht my inspiration is you Lea. Thanks for making such good content and making people like us inspired.
Oh that’s great! Definitely will have a look on your channel also!
Lea
Iceland is even more beautiful when it's sunny. Another stunning video! The scenery on Route 35 looks like a different planet. Unbelievable! Getting into the hot spring is easy, getting out is freezing! No Thanks!
I can't wait for the next episode.
Ride SAFE and BE safe Lady! 👍👍
Of course you get the usual Roses and gifts for the family!

Exactly, getting out of the hot springs is the problem. If I would have gone in I think I would have stayed there forever. 😂
Great video thank you very well done as always thanks for taking us along cheers to ya.
Thank you for coming along like always. 💃🏻
Great video, beautiful footage, excellent host. Happy trails!
Thank you!
Bonjour Léa . Merci pour tes partages.
Nice to see you enjoying your travelling carrying little A ...you are a strong women......thanks beautiful lea....
Thank you, what a nice compliment!
Iceland is a unique landscape! Thanks for showing it to us. I would not have got into the hot springs, but I'm sure I am in the minority.
I am completely with you - taking off any clothes if it’s so cold didn’t seem reasonable to me. 😂
Breathtaking, absolutely breathtaking cinematic experience my friend!
Thank you!
Good evening Lea,
Beautiful landscapes and no people around…bring it on for me. Making photos with no bloody cars on them😊
Even with rain, the landscape is majestic.
Funny that your day trip was over in a few hours. In Norway almost always tours took 1,5-2 times as long as planned.
Yes, Norwegian distances are definitely much longer than Icelandic ones also! 😅
Again, amazing! How fun to meet someone you know on the road! Wonderful and beautiful.
Yes what a crazy coincidence! The world is so small. 🤯
Another super video... capturing some beautiful scenery .....some great choice of background music too.
Yes...the world is small ....meeting Martin for example ( been following his travels for some years )..
Stay safe
He is such a nice guy! I am a big Martin fan!
yes... me too ....SAD his blonde biker babe ....walked away@@Got2Go
Hi Lea, Travel Partner and Bikers. Important Warning. I am a Dutch ex- motorcyclist. I started motorcycling in 1966. Nobody thought about Ear Protection then. I rode hundreds of thousands of kilometers with my Triumph's ( 34 hp wow) and Moto Guzzi's (50 hp wow) to school, to work, for fun and on holiday. Without any ear protection!!
It wasn't until 1990? that it was discovered that motorcycle police-officers were becoming deaf, they started wearing ear protection. So did I. But the damage had already been done. Now I have no bike but the strongest hearing aids available, in bike language: double Turbo/ 8 gears/red striping. But I only understand someone when he/she talks to me at a distance of one meter and I can see their mouth. And there is nothing that can be done about it. ( Yes three Turbo/10 speed) And remember, it is not the sound of the engine but it's the sound of the wind in the helmet. Be smart and Google . The noise in your helmet can reach 103 dB at 100 kmh or 60 mph.😢
I always ride with noise isolating earphones or earplugs for that reason! ☺️
Sorry to hear that this happened to you!
@@Got2Go I knew it, smart lady.
Hmmm… the man in the red coat. Have I seen that neck and ears before? Is he afraid of puffin poo? 😂
I’m operating under the assumption that I have correctly guessed little A’s name. 🥳
I’m glad you are riding around and across Iceland. Such an epic and majestic place. Hopefully, the current lava flows don’t do too much damage.
Thanks again for sharing! 🍻
What!!! I think I have missed out on some of you guesses! What were the last ones? I think we should start to have a list! 😅
But: i don’t think little A‘s name was there yet… 😂
And he is definitely afraid of puffin 💩😂
@@Got2Go Okay. Okay. Next episode I’ll include the full list to date. 🤣
@@Rebel_Canuck😂😂😂 that’s a lot of homework 😂
Awesome, amazing and wonderful ❤❤❤ enjoy 🎉
Thank you!
Thank you Got2Go ❤😊
Thank you for watching the journey on route 35!
Amazing video...thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you for watching!
Hello to Walter and Martin ! 🇬🇧
Thanks for your amazing video, this helped me understand F35 route as I am deciding between F26 and F35 to cross Iceland on my T7 👍🏻
F26 is definitely the more remote one and I think also the more challenging one - there are also one or two water crossings on F26, that’s why we decided against it because I was pregnant and didn’t want to risk anything. But my friend Martin who you see here in the end of the video did f26 with his big Bmw 1200 gs all by himself and Managed it very well!
@@Got2Go excellent thanks for the reply, I will plot both routes with F26 as first choice and depending on weather and time I’ll choose once there 🙏🏻
awesome🤗🤗
Ok 👏🎉👍 Lea 🌹☕
Hello! 👋🏻
Tschuss 👌👍
Awesome video! What is your travel partner riding? I don't think I would have gone into the hot springs, maybe, with sunshine. Food looked delicious. Best!
He is riding an Africa twin that is quite customized though. It’s the same bike he had on the Westafrica journey and the European road trip that you can find here on the channel.
Definitely would have gone with sunshine, but with this cold… 🥶🥶🥶
Comment for the algorithm. My plan to complain about the weather does not work. 🤭
Thank you Toto. The algorithm doesnt seem to like me these days. But you guys are still there and that’s all that counts!
🧿👏👏👏🇹🇷🏍
👋😘
Hello and welcome back to
Iceland !!!
@@Got2Go
itsa luvly place!
🤗
Another amazing episode, one question I would ask, if you was to do the same again would you have used heated clothing, for me personally being old and feeling the cold it has allowed me to ride almost twelve months of the year. Thank you.
Not on this trip, we really had super good weather and there were only a few days where it was really cold. Even on this day it was cold, but our gear kind of kept us warm enough so it was not endless suffering. But if I would go somewhere where I knew temperature would be around 0-5 degrees Celsius constantly , I for sure would have done that. It’s great that you have such good experiences with heated gear, I for sure want to try it at one point in the future when it’s more needed!
Evening Lea. Know you do not do bike techy stuff. Well apart from your review on the T7 which helped me buy one. What tyres did you have on ? Your choice of roads would be my limit.
Second 😅
Hi queen i love you very much😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Route F35 had to be stalthy, right? 🤗 👍💪
💃🏻 of course 😅
