Iceland is a mountaineering playground

Iceland has great potential for mountain trekking, ski touring, mountain skiing and ice climbing. Trekking Hvannadalshnúkur (2119 m / 6952 ft), the highest peak in Iceland, is by no means easy as the trek sets out just above sea level. Ski touring on Vatnajökull, the biggest ice cap in Europe, is another thing you don't easily forget.
