How do I get to the Botnaleid Siglo Fljot trailhead?
Botnaleid Siglo Fljot is in North Iceland. Use the map on this page for the trailhead coordinates and check live road conditions before you drive — some trailheads sit on gravel or F-roads that need a 4×4 and only open in summer.
Is Botnaleid Siglo Fljot safe to hike alone?

Tell someone your plan (or file one at safetravel.is), carry a charged phone and layers, check the forecast, and turn back if fog, wind or rising rivers set in. Don’t rely on phone signal.
When is the best time to hike Botnaleid Siglo Fljot?
