Iceland Hiking challenge 2009

Iceland is a land of incredible contrast and beauty.  Its wild volcanic landscapes, mountains, glaciers, hot springs, geysers and waterfalls, combined with its rich history, literature and folklore make it a fascinating country to explore.

Our 100km trek will take us from the active Mount Hekla to Landmannalaugar and then on through the mountains to the permanent icecaps of Myrdals and Eyjafjallajokull in the south. 

Join us to experience the remote and breathtaking scenery and enjoy an inspirational challenge which will help change the lives of people affected by cancer.
