Itinerary description
A nice walk for seeing changing views on the glacier.
Easy but long walk. The last part of the way up was a bit more difficult in piles of moving rocks...
You can easily decide when you’ve had enough and then turn back... or go further than we did.
There is the possibility to mate a round trip going to Svartifoss but we made it as 2 hikes one evening and one morning.... your choice.
