When I visited Iceland, I went with an Icelandic friend to watch a geyser that would regularly erupt. There was a warning sign, but other than that, there was nothing to prevent you from walking directly up to the geyser hole and looking in. I mentioned to my friend that in the US there would probably be either a fence to keep people back or a guard who would stand there to move people away from the hole. I said that in the US if they only had a sign by a geyser and someone went over to the geyser and got hurt or killed then the government would be sued for not doing more to protect them. My Icelandic friend said, “If you tried to do that here, you would be told that you were an idiot for sticking your head over a geyser.”

A couple of these things are different in a few other countries where there is a legal tradition of assumed public right of way for walking, camping, etc on any undeveloped land. But if you’re from one of those countries you really need to understand that is NOT the norm and not ok everywhere. Unfortunately, sometimes, particularly among vanlifers (people who travel in vans that have been converted to tiny home interiors), you’ll see blogs and videos promoting a somewhat arrogant assumption that they can just use any out of the way spot as home base for the night...use it to dump their toilet...etc.

Will add: Don't scald yourself with the hot water tap and never let go of your car door, in the wind, until it's closed. We called it the Keflavik crunch. The water is so good! I camped all summer and would fill up my water bottle "in the wild". 🤯 The south coast is amazing but I love the north. Would actually get better weather around Akureyri. Had magical moments all around the country. Have been hesitant to go back because there were very little tourist when I lived there. So afraid it won't be the same.

But we have a lot of potty stops so most adults can wait. If you are elderly then put on ‘depends’ or go before you set out.

However, it can potentially be quite icy then, so I suggest having micro spikes for you shoes to prevent slipping. Bónus is the cheapest store. Krónan is a little more expensive but not too bad. I recommend getting a car if you plan to get out of town. Even if you can’t walk around much, the landscape is beautiful.
