About

A medium-difficulty road to the glacier lake Hagavatn, passing a mountain cabin partway and ending near the waterfall Leynifoss.

Quiet — a cabin partway is the only sign of infrastructure before you reach the lake and waterfall.

A cabin about halfway (roughly 4,000 ISK a night on record) is the only accommodation option along the route before you reach Leynifoss.

The glacial river crossing near the end is the main obstacle — glacial rivers rise through the day as melt increases, so earlier is generally safer than later. Check current levels rather than assuming last week's report still applies.
