questions

How long is the DI Extension hike?

How do I get to the DI Extension trailhead?
DI Extension is in Westfjords. 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 DI Extension 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 DI Extension?
Most Icelandic hiking is a June–September activity, when trails are snow-free and daylight is long. Highland routes open later and close earlier; check road and trail status before committing.
