Description

I have the pleasure to invite you to the Icelandic West Fjords, more precisely to its northernmost peninsula: Hornstrandir. It is a completely abandoned and isolated area and that’s why today Hornstrandir is an amazing natural reserve to hike.

The access to West Fjords is only by boat. Its weather conditions are really changeable. Although it may be a problem for someone, I can assure is not. During this hike you will live different landscapes in each new step you give.

Top reasons why I like to go there

  • All my family come from there (since many many generations)

  • I know the place extremely well (since I was a child and 7 years as a guide)

  • Love the fact that it’s a very remote area.

    I will provide everything in terms of equipment: tents, camping gear, sleeping bags, mattress and food. You only have to Bring good waterproof hiking shoes (leather!)

I offer you a really custom trip according to your own wishes and expectations. Prices depend on trip duration (all trips are 5 or 6 days long), the accommodation you choose (hut or tents) and the places of West Fjords you want to visit.

So just contact me regarding all those items because there are loads of options. Same with what is included. But in general I take care of everything from beginning to end: hotels, all food, transport and equipment.

Price includes

  • Accommodation included
  • Guiding fee
  • Breakfast
  • Lunch
  • Dinner
  • Transportation start and back
