A friend came to me and asked what are you doing this summer? Any holiday plans? Want to join me biking in Italy or sail in Croatia? No, I want to hike the route between Landmannalaugar – Þórsmörk. The answer back was, coool, let us do that. Click on the photos to see it in a bigger version on Flickr. Planning Er right, yeah, we didn’t do much of that.
