Þórsmörk valley is a very special place and the rugged nature of this valley offers a unique composition of glaciers, low woodland and mighty glacial rivers we will have to cross with a modified 4x4 vehicle to reach our destination. On the way to Thorsmörk we will visit the picturesque waterfall Seljalandsfoss, pass the Gígjökull glacier lagoon before turning back at the spectacular gorge Stakkholtsgjá, where we will eat a pack lunch. 

As we emerge from the vast glacier valley we will drive east to the frozen glacier tongue of Sólheimajökull.
