Iceland 2021 Part4: #14 Glaciers in the Southeast

07.07.2021

After a beautiful sunset and sunrise I decided to explore glaciers in the southeast: Hoffellsfjöll and Kverkfjöll

First part: Hoffellsfjöll

The drive is a rocky road for about 7-8km. You have to be prepared to drive very slow and careful.

I did not have a 4×4 and you dont need one as long as you are aware of pottholes and big stones.

The river from Hoffell look fantastiv from above.

The road to Kverkfjöll is even worse and longer. It seems the glacier is further away.

The road ends and you are still far away from the glacier. I could not reach the trailing edge with my drone around 8km out…

All in all if you have to decide between the two glaciers, go for Hoffelsjökull.

Good night.
