Frequently
asked
questions

How do I book Á Tungnahrygg - Ferðafélag Svarfdæla?

Á Tungnahrygg - Ferðafélag Svarfdæla is a backcountry hut in Highlands. Booking is handled by the operating touring association — check huts.is for the current reservation system, and book well ahead in summer.

What should I bring to Á Tungnahrygg - Ferðafélag Svarfdæla?

Huts provide mattresses but not bedding, so bring a sleeping bag (a liner adds warmth). Pack your own food and a stove — most huts have a shared kitchen but no shop. Cash or a card for the warden, layers for cold nights, and a headtorch.

How do I get to Á Tungnahrygg - Ferðafélag Svarfdæla?

Á Tungnahrygg - Ferðafélag Svarfdæla is in Highlands. Highland huts often sit on an F-road that needs a 4×4 and only opens in summer, and some are reached on foot along a multi-day trail. Check live road conditions on this page and safetravel.is before you set out, and tell someone your route.

Is there a warden at Á Tungnahrygg - Ferðafélag Svarfdæla?

Many Icelandic huts are staffed by a warden in the summer season — a good source on trail conditions and weather. Outside the staffed season huts may be unlocked but unserviced. Never rely on a hut being open or having space without a booking.
