Iceland Ring Road: The Ultimate

Route: KEF → Reykjavík → Golden Circle → Vík → Höfn → Seyðisfjörður → Mývatn → Akureyri → KEF
Jun-Aug = endless daylight, all roads open. Dec-Feb = aurora season but Ring Road sections close in storms. Daily daylight: Jun ~21h, Dec ~4h. Plan accordingly.

Buckle up! We’re hitting the full Route 1 circle. It’s a bit of a marathon, but doing it in 8 days gives you just enough time to see the heavy hitters from the South Coast glaciers to the Martian landscapes of the North.

8days
