Southern Iceland Winter Wonderland Private Workshop Report
March 12th - March 18th 2026
At the conclusion of my second 2026 Arctic fox workshop (Read the trip Report) to the Hornstrandir Nature Reserve in the far northwest of Iceland, I ran a private landscape extension workshop in the southwest and southeast regions. Both are locations I am intimately familiar with, having spent well over a year leading trips in Iceland over the last decade. Originally, my plan for this extension was to head east from Isafjordur, around the top of Iceland (through Myvatn), and then back down the east coast to the south before returning to Keflavik. Late winter weather, however, had something else to say about this plan, and snowstorms closed this route. So I decided to head directly south and we adjusted plans accordingly.
