HIGHLAND CIRCLE PASSPORT

Highland Circle Passport
 
Passport  is ideal for those who want to see the interior of Iceland on a clear, pre-decided route.  The starting point is in Reykja-vík and from there the route continues to Selfoss village. There you choose the direction to take:

1) You can continue along route nr. 1 on through the coastal villages, Hella, Hvolsvollur, Skogar, Vik and aeto Skaftafell National Park, from where you would then travel back to Kirkjubaejarklaustur and to Landmannalaugar Oasis.  From Landmannalaugar the route lies north, to Hrauneyjar Highland Center and continues across Sprengisandur Interior route to Lake Myvatn in the north. From Lake Myvatn you take a bus to Akureyri and return south via interior route Kjölur, which lies from north to south Iceland, in between glaciers and along hot spring areas. This route connects with Highway nr. 1 in Selfoss, from where you go to Reykjavík tocomplete the circle.

 2) Option two is taking the bus from Reykjavík across Kjolur route, via Selfoss to Akureyri. This is the opposite circle to option 1, i.e. you travel from Akureyri to Lake Myvatn and from there you travel south across Sprengisandur interior route to Landmannalaugar.  From Landmannalaugar the route goes on to Kirkjubaejarklaustur and Skaftafell, from where you travel along the south coast to Reykjavík.
