Die Fimmvörðuháls hiking trail, from Skógar to Þórsmörk, is one of Iceland’s best-known hiking routes. This Private Tageswanderung von FimmvörPGuháls takes you through spectacular waterfalls, glaciers, volcanic landscapes, mountain passes, and the beautiful Þórsmörk valley.
Our day begins at the impressive 60-meter-high Skógafoss-wasserfall, where we start our approximately 25-kilometer hike towards Þórsmörk. From there, the trail follows the Skógá River and passes a series of beautiful waterfalls. As we climb higher, the landscape changes dramatically as we make our way between the glaciers Eyjafjallajökull und Maurdalsjökull.
Along the way, you can experience the volcanic landscape created during the 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruption. The route passes the volcanic craters Móði and Magni, formed during the eruption. From this high mountain area, we then begin our descent towards Þórsmörk, with spectacular views across Iceland’s rugged highlands.
One of the highlights of the Fimmvörðuháls trail is “Waterfall Way,” where numerous waterfalls follow the Skógá River. The route then continues towards the site of the 2010 eruption, which famously disrupted air travel across Europe.
As you continue across the mountain pass, the scenery becomes increasingly dramatic. The trail passes through rugged volcanic terrain, deep canyons, and eventually reaches the lush Oórsmörk-tal. On a clear day, you may see glaciers, volcanoes, valleys, and vast Highland landscapes stretching across southern Iceland.
After completing the hike, we meet our Super Jeep guide in Þórsmörk. From there, we begin the drive back towards Skógar. This scenic journey gives you a chance to experience even more of the area’s remarkable landscapes without having to retrace the hiking trail.
During the drive, we pass Gígjökull glacier, where enormous glacial floods flowed down from the Eyjafjallajökull area following the 2010 eruption. We also cross the vast floodplain of the Markarfljót River before continuing towards the south coast.
Before returning to Skógar, we make a stop at Seljalandsfoss Wasserfall. This famous waterfall is one of Iceland’s most recognizable natural attractions and provides a memorable final stop after a challenging day in the mountains.
Die Fimmvörðuháls trail starts right beside Skógafoss. A long series of steps leads to the top of the waterfall. Take a moment to catch your breath and enjoy the view before continuing into the mountains for an unforgettable day of hiking.
Anmerkung: Depending on weather and trail conditions, the hike may be operated from Þórsmörk to Skógar instead.
The average hiking time is around 8–10 hours, although the exact duration depends on weather, trail conditions, and the group’s pace. Some hikers complete the route in less than 8 hours, while others may need up to 12 hours.
Dies private Fimmvörðuháls day hike is an excellent way to experience one of Iceland’s most spectacular mountain trails while combining the hike with a Super Jeep journey through Þórsmörk.
Die Wanderung durch Fimmör1uháls, von Skógar nach Skórsmörk, ist eine der bekanntesten Wanderrouten Islands. Wir beginnen unseren Tag am 60 m hohen Skógarfoss-Wasserfall, wo wir unsere 25 Kilometer lange Wanderung in Richtung 25 Kilometer beginnen. Der Weg schlängelt sich entlang des Flusses Skógáh und seiner vielen Wasserfälle und hinauf zwischen den beiden Gletschern Eyjafallajökull und Mrdalsjökull. Dort können wir den jüngsten Lavafluss vom Ausbruch 2010 auf Fimmvöruhóls und die Wanderung auf den beiden Vulkankreuzern erleben. Unsere Höhen und Magnos werden dort beginnen.
Unten im Tal der órsmörk treffen wir unseren Super-Jeep-Führer und beginnen mit dem Weg von der 'Ofórsmörk' Auf der Rückfahrt nach Skógar sehen wir den Gígjökull-Gletscher, wo die meisten Überschwemmungen des Ausbruchs des Eyjafjallajökull 2010 zu Boden gingen und die weite Aue des Flusses Markarflóts. Bevor wir nach Skógar kommen, werden wir vor unserem letzten Abschied von órsmörk einen Stopp am Wasserfall Seljalandsfoss einlegen*.
Hinweis: Abhängig von den Bedingungen kann die Tour von órsmörk nach Skógar durchgeführt werden.
Der Treffpunkt befindet sich am Hamragarnikar Camping (Gljúfrabúi-Wasserfall, neben Seljalandsfoss)
