Heads Up
- 1. Fjaðrárgljúfur and Skógafoss are key filming sites for Justin Bieber and Dilwale; please stay on marked paths to protect fragile moss.
- 2. September marks the start of Aurora season; check the Kp-index and cloud cover forecasts nightly.
- 3. The Sólheimasandur Plane Wreck requires a 45-minute walk each way or a paid shuttle bus.
- 4. Weather in late September can change rapidly; ensure your rental car has appropriate tires for potential early frost in the North.
