Iceland Highland by Jeep

We spent a few unforgettable days on the Icelandic Highland in August 2007. Across vast lava fields and over river crossings in our Land Rover Defender.

Summer road F88

After having stopped for a night in the town of Akureyri in the northern part of Iceland we headed back south again via a more easterly route.
