questions
How long is the Thrihyrningur hike?
The Thrihyrningur trail is about 5.2 km based on its recorded GPS track. Times vary with pace, weather and how much you stop — plan conservatively and turn back early if conditions change.
How do I get to the Thrihyrningur trailhead?
Thrihyrningur is in South Coast. 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 Thrihyrningur safe to hike alone?
Thrihyrningur sits 11 km from Hvolsvöllur, and 11 km from Route 1. The uploader rated it easy and it climbs about 565 m. Iceland trails are often unmarked and weather turns quickly. 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 Thrihyrningur?
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.
