We will observe bubbling rivers, geothermal hot springs, beautiful lava, and colorful mountains on way as the group hike to mountain Hrafntinnusker, 1100 meters above sea level. The view from there is fantastic as we will have stunning panoramic views of the surrounding volcanic landscape and nearby glaciers. The mountain Hrafntinnusker is is also known for its abundance of obsidian, a black volcanic glass formed from rapidly cooled lava.

From Hrafntinnusker we begin descending to Lake Álftavatn where we camp over the night.

The path is unmarked and not visible and far from all roads. We will enjoy different landscape rest of this day as we hike onto the Mælifellssandur with the black sand around us green hills in the background and good view on the magnificent glacier Mýrdalsjökull where the volcano Katla is resting.

We trek through the black volcanic sand of Mælifellssandur to the ridge Slysaalda a mysterious place of old storis of hidden outlaws and tragic accident in the year 1868.

Álftavötn小屋是农民从高地上放牧羊群时使用的老房子。Útivist的成员几年前重建了它，现在它是一个非常舒适和舒适的小屋。

We leave the hut in Álftavatnskrókur in the morning. We are surely off the beaten path now as there are no known trails or treks. We are trekking alongside and inside the Eldgjá Canyon fissure as we enter the Vatnajökull National Park.

The Eldgjá Canyon fissure is a 70 km long canyon reaching from the glacier Mýrdalsjökull, where the Katla volcano lures, to the peak Gjátindur (943 m). We set the course to the Peak Gjátindur where the view over the canyon and the highland of Iceland is truly magnificent.

Eldgjá canyon fissure was created by eruptions that took place in the year 934. In our trek we will observe the fissure and take a good look at the waterfall Ófærufoss.

The total lava flow from the Eldgjá eruption is estimated to be around 19 cubic kilometers. That makes the Eldgjá eruption the most volumetric lava flow from one eruption in historical time. The origins of the Eldgjá eruption are from the Katla volcano system.

From peak Gjátindur our way is downhill towards the river Skaftá. The end destination this day is Skælingar, where the most adventurous hikers will be able to bathe in a cold mere.

In Skælingar there is an old Shepards cabin. It was initially built by the farmers in this part of Iceland. It is one of many such cabins in Iceland that were used in the autumn in the sheep round-up, when farmers collected sheep from the Highland.

Skælingar is a wonderful world of unusual lava formations. A place where everything is calm and quiet but a place that looks strange and exotic. In Skælingar there are many amazing lava formations from Laki crater eruption that took place in the year 1783 (Skaftáreldar) that are beautiful scenery.

Sveinstind 小屋曾经是农民从高地收集羊群的地方，但 Útivist 的成员几年前重建了它。古老的石墙被使用，冰岛文化传统得以保留。

After breakfast the trek begins by hiking to the top of peak Sveinstindur (1.090 m)

The view from the top is spectacular. The view stretches over the breath-taking valleys, mountains, and glaciers. The hike from the hut to the peak will take 4 hours.  The starting destination at the bottom of Sveinstindur is around 500 meters above sea level and the top is 1090 meters. The elevation is therefore 5-600 meters.

Lake Langisjór in the national park, one of Europe’s most beautiful and pristine highland lakes, is tucked in between the beautiful Tungnárfjöll and Fögrufjöll Mountains at the western edge of Vatnajökull Glacier. Measuring 20 km long and 2 km wide in some places, the lake is 27sq km and 75m at its deepest and lies some 640m above sea level. T

The view around the lake is magnificent and at the southern end of the lake Langisjór stands peak Sveinstindur (1090 m) which is considered by many to be one of the best views of the panorama of the surrounding area. The view stretches over all the lake Langisjór additionally, an unforgettable sight to see. To the right of the lake is the mountain range Fögrufjöll with numerous lagoons between heights and peaks. East of the mountain range Fögrufjöll runs the glacier river Skaftá, which has historically crashed with catastrophic floods. The floods originate in Skaftárkatlar, which is a geothermal area underneath the glacier Vatnajökull. From the east of the Skaftá river, one can see the crater Lakagígar, where the lava from the Laki fissure flooded in the lowlands in 1783 – the third largest lava flow on earth since the last Ice Age.

From peak Sveinstindur we will descend toward lake Langisjór and hike to our pickup location where the group will be picked up by a 4x4 truck that transfer the group of the highlands to the lowland where we will drive the South Coast Road back to Reykjavík City. We will drive through the town of Vík where we will stop for refreshment and from there, we will visit the Black Beach (Reynisfjara). Estimated arrival in Reykjavík City is at 18.00
