Þakgil is a stunning hiking area in Iceland, known for its beautiful canyons, ravines, waterfalls, and even a melting glacier. Accessible only in summer, the road to Þakgil is bumpy but worth the scenic drive through a valley filled with river streams and lush green hills. The campsite at Þakgil offers a picturesque setting for camping or staying in private huts. With three main hiking trails and various detours, Þakgil is a hiking paradise waiting to be explored.
