Introduction of go on road trip, Iceland in 2020

Iceland is a very marginalized country, because from our world map, Iceland is located in the northwest corner and feels very far away from us. Iceland is rich in natural resources. Although most areas here are extremely cold, some areas are still warm because of their unique geographical and geomorphological characteristics. Here, I would like to share with you the detailed strategy of changing Iceland to road trip.

The sunshine time in Iceland May- 10 is summer, so the sunshine is very long. In winter, the sunshine is reduced to 5 hours from June to April.

App that must be downloaded: Aurora Alerts Vedur Vegagerdin (produced by Iceland Road Safety Bureau).

Network situation Iceland's network is very poor, and many times there is no signal on the mobile phone. It is recommended to download the map offline map. The calling card was bought at the airport, and it is also very useful to roam internationally for 30 days.

Car rental service rents 4X4 off-road vehicles. Renting a car requires a credit card and an international driver's license or a domestic translator. You need to rent a car with anti-skid wheels in winter, and you must turn on the lights when driving during the day. There is a self-service payment machine in the parking lot. Gas stations are self-service, and only credit cards can be used.

Accommodation Hotel Iceland suggests staying at B&B. A group of people live in one house, feeling that we are the only ones in the world, holding hot pot and drinking wine from all over the world. Is this the real Iceland?

Dressing guide+key points of taking pictures: hats, scarves, gloves, Martin boots, knee-length down jackets, sweaters, jumpsuits, tights and thermal underwear are all necessary for taking pictures. (Yellow and black down jacket) Icelandic sweaters must be bought. Take two knee-high down jackets, take them off when taking pictures, and get on the bus after taking pictures.

Where is a good place to take pictures?

Aircraft wreckage, black beach and diamond beach are the best places to take pictures. There are parking lots next to every scenic spot in Iceland, and there are few people. In fact, photos are taken all over Iceland, and every scenic spot is still vivid, so everyone should wear beautiful clothes to go out every day.

D 1 1: Leave Iceland

Iceland is also a very popular tourist destination in recent years. Many friends will feel that they are in a strange place and don't know whether they can go to go on road trip or travel alone. So this small series will tell you about it.

Do you have any questions? 1 1. Traveling to Iceland for two by car, mainly to some public attractions rather than near volcanoes, is there any question about renting a car (like golf)? Still have to rent an suv(suv is 2k expensive), and some of the roads to the hotel are 3-digit paths, which is a bit worrying.

The choice of vehicle type is mainly related to the route and season. First of all, do you go around the island? Or just play in the southwest coastal areas? If only the 1 highway drives the southwest coastal area, we can consider two drives. Suvs are more suitable for driving outside the city. If it is around the island, June+10 in 5438 does not rule out the possibility of snow in the north. If it snows, four-wheel drive is definitely more suitable. After all, Iceland is rainy and snowy in winter, and the road surface is inevitably slippery.

In addition, if the accommodation part is a three-digit road, then it is actually necessary to drive an suv.

You don't have to take the F bus (drive 2), but some gravel roads, such as the section to Xiaohe Lake, can go far slowly. The section on the Crafra volcano of Mi Hu Geothermal Power Station is steep and easy to drive. Besides, it hasn't snowed on the 11th National Day. Fortunately, I can see the aurora more than once. The weather in Iceland is changeable. I suggest sending an email to the boss for more information. Icelanders are still very enthusiastic. I think as long as it is not very remote, there should be no problem.

How to choose a road by car If it is just around the island, it will be fine in early October, but you have a three-digit path, which is relatively troublesome. See if you have any driving experience on icy roads. If you have, you should be able to cope. If not, for safety reasons, it is more appropriate to choose an suv. I went in February, and the road conditions were quite bad. Welcome to check my Nordic Iceland Travel Notes, which contains road conditions and other related strategies, hoping to help you.

It is worthwhile to spend 2 K. The climate in Iceland has been changing a lot during the National Day.

3-digit paths, many of which are unpaved.

If it is not around the island, it is not a big problem to drive only in southern Iceland. The weather is unpredictable. If you go around the island, you should still consider spending 2K more.
