How long to stay in Iceland?
For a road trip around the entire island, I recommend taking 10-14 days. In Iceland you always have to take the weather into account, which means you may suddenly have to stay in one place longer. You can visit the areas north and south of Iceland in a week. A long weekend is enough for a city trip to Reykjavik.
Highlights Golden Circle Iceland
As the sun sets, the roads in Iceland are slowly getting covered in snow. Despite the intense geothermal activity, we decide to make a detour and visit one of the most popular attractions in Iceland - the Gullfoss waterfall. We realize that the sun has already set when we look at the photos we took. Luckily, we are staying nearby and can always come back. Visiting the Golden Circle in Iceland during winter requires some adjustments, but it also offers a stunning landscape covered in bright white snow, creating a beautiful contrast with the geysers, mountains, and waterfalls. Here are some tips for the route and must-see attractions on the Golden Circle in Iceland, including how much time you need and what to expect during winter.
