    Natalie

    Asked on March 5th, 2026

    Can you tell me the number of miles per day we hike? Also...level, hilly, or steep. I am 77 years old and in good physical condition but would want to know how difficult a hike it is.

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • Arctic AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2026

      On average, trekkers walk 6 to 10 miles daily, although on the second day the walking distance is around 15 miles.

      The Laugavegur Trek requires a moderate level of fitness. While it is not a technical climb, the trail involves long days of hiking, varied terrain, and significant elevation changes. Hikers should be prepared for 6-10 hours of walking per day, often on uneven, rocky paths and through diverse landscapes

  • T

    Trevor

    Asked on August 10th, 2025

    We have a client interested in a 5-day trek on the Laugavegur trail in Iceland for a group of 4 travelers in July 2026. They would require luggage transfer and food included in the package. They would like to be sleeping in huts.

    • Arctic AdventuresOperatorWritten December 2024

      The Laugavegur Trek with Fimmvörðuhálss is a classic 6-day hiking adventure in Iceland. Participants stay in mountain huts along the trail. These huts are shared dormitory-style accommodations with basic facilities, including communal kitchens and bathrooms. You will need to bring your own sleeping bag. Private rooms are not available. The tour does not include a direct airport pickup. However, pickups are available from designated locations in Reykjavík. From the airport, you can take a shuttle to Reykjavík and join the group at specified locations like City Hall or Reykjavík Campsite.

      TravelerWritten November 2024

      do we still need to bring a sleeping bag? and do we need to bring food or food will be provided and included in the tour

    • Arctic AdventuresOperatorWritten November 2024

      Yes, you will need to bring a sleeping bag for your hut stay. If you prefer not to bring your own, we offer sleeping bag rentals. All meals are provided and included in the tour package, so there's no need to bring your own food.

      Lucy

      TravelerWritten December 2024

      does it mean that we can bring a daypack and a carry-on sized or more with us and leave the bigger one for transportting to the next hut while just carry the daypack with us? what capacity of the daypack you would recommend if that's the case. i have a osprey 36L but not sure if it is too big?

    • Arctic AdventuresOperatorWritten December 2024

      With the tour you've booked, luggage transport is included, which means you can bring a larger bag to be transported between huts. During the trek, you'll only need to carry a daypack with essentials for the day. We recommend a daypack in the range of 25–40 liters. Your Osprey 36L is a great choice.
