Slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature on this serene four-day trek through the untouched landscapes of Víknaslóðir. Designed for those who prefer a gentle pace, this is not a race – it’s a mindful exploration of some of Iceland’s most peaceful and breathtaking fjords.
Starting and ending in the charming village of Borgarfjörður eystri, the route takes you through remote inlets and colorful rhyolite mountains, past abandoned farms and hidden beaches. Each day covers 13–15 km with manageable elevation, perfect for hikers seeking a slower rhythm and deep connection with the land.
Led by Íris Hrund Halldórsdóttir, this experience is ideal for women who want to combine hiking with rest, inspiration, and beautiful solitude. Stay in cozy mountain huts and let the calm of East Iceland restore your spirit.
