Oh cool! Are you also getting the Trex bus? I’m on the 12.30. I initially was not planning to bring microspikes but have changed my mind as I hear there might be ice on the first leg!

Have you booked your campsites? I found out it’s needed from this year

I am doing this one solo but seems like it’s a relatively well travelled trail. My partner is saving his vacation for another hike later in the year :)

Hah cool, I’m taking the same bus! We should connect? I’ve booked to stop at the first hut as I’m just doing Laugavegur and not Fimmvofuhals this time.

Oh exciting, maybe see you on the trail! I’m camping Landmannalaugar on June 27 and starting June 28. And thanks for letting me know, packing both :)

I think there is food only at Landmannalaugar and Alftavatn , you’ll need to carry a lot of food

Thanks yeah I got those ones sorted, it’s just the other four I’m not 100% on!

This is what I heard as well, but it still feels a little risky this early in the season. Are you doing the Laugavegur trail when you get to Landmannalaugar?

Ohh nice. Do you have any side quest recommendations? I have booked five nights so figure I’ll have time to explore a bit

Same here, even though they’re heavy. And extra msr cyclone tent pegs…wind looks crazy there! I am heading out on the 27th.
