Iceland by Bicycle, 1999

The route map will show you each of the locations represented by the thumbnails.  For convenience a separate map window will open when you choose the route. 

The trip went counter-clockwise starting from the south west corner of Iceland.
And so the journal runs left to right, top to bottom. But you can go in any order that you'd like.

The Route Keflavik Under Eyarfjallajökull Skogafoss
Skogar Folk Museum Dyrholaey Vik i Myrdal Eldhraun
The Laki Fissure Skeidararsandur Jökulsárlon Hengifoss
My personal favorites:
  • Skeidararsandur, for the endless view
  • Jökuldalsheiði, for the wonderful Sænautesel
  • Krafla, at Myvatn
  • Hraunhafnartangi, for where it is
  • Goðafoss, I had it all to myself for the evening
