Itinerary description
þórsgata Volcano Trail is one of the most beautiful and versatile trails in Iceland and offers unrivalled views of the Þórsmörk Nature Reserve and the neighbouring mountains, volcanoes, glaciers and valleys. The Þórsgata Trail sits right between the two iconic trails Laugavegur and Fimmvörðuháls and is an ideal extension for anyone planning to hike these two trails.
The trail is ideal for both hiking and for trail running with the Volcano Huts as basecamp. One of the most popular trail-running competitions in Iceland, the Þórsgata Volcano Trail Run is staged on parts of this trail.
