The BEST 8 Day Iceland Itinerary

If you’re dreaming of an unforgettable Iceland road trip, you’ve landed in the right place. This Iceland itinerary is your ultimate guide to 8 days packed with jaw-dropping waterfalls, geothermal wonders, black sand beaches, and charming towns.

Whether you’re chasing the Northern Lights or soaking in a geothermal lagoon, this Iceland itinerary will ensure you experience the best of Iceland’s natural beauty and culture.

Iceland’s Ring Road

Iceland’s ring road is a 1,332-kilometer (820-mile) loop that circles the island, connecting major towns, natural wonders, and hidden treasures. This popular route offers you a front-row seat to cascading waterfalls, volcanic landscapes, and glacier lagoons.

You will start at the capital, Reykjavik, and venture north to Akureyri, then the remote East Fjords, then finally the South Coast. You can also do this itinerary in the opposite direction, starting in the South and moving counter-clockwise around the island.

The ring road makes it easy to explore Iceland’s diverse terrain. While some stops on this itinerary veer off the main route for unique experiences, the Ring Road’s well-maintained paths and clear signage make it ideal for first-time visitors.

Iceland in October

We did this route in October, which was beautiful with some fall colors and fewer crowds, but it’s important to note that the weather can already start turning unpredictable, especially in the northern and eastern parts of the country. The temperature during the day ranged from 35°F to 55°F. I wouldn’t advise doing this full itinerary in the winter, as snow and icy road conditions can make driving hazardous, and some areas may be inaccessible.

This Iceland itinerary packs in a lot of stops everyday! We were up every morning pretty early to eat breakfast, pack, and get on the road around 8 AM. We had about 8hrs of daylight and we made sure to use all of them!

We never ended up at our next hotel when it was still daylight. Keep in mind that all of these stops are optional. Make sure you are enjoying your days and taking enough time to soak it all in!

Renting a Car in Iceland

Renting a car is the key to unlocking the full potential of your Iceland Itinerary. With the freedom to explore at your own pace, you can stop at every waterfall, canyon, or café that catches your eye.

We used Hertz at Keflavik International Airport to rent our vehicle. They offer reliable vehicles suited for Iceland’s varied terrain, from paved highways to gravel roads. Be sure to book in advance, especially during peak seasons, and consider a 4×4 if you plan to venture off the Ring Road. Rentalcars.com usually has the best prices, and their customer service is available 24/7!

Check for insurance coverage and make sure you are protected, as Iceland’s weather can be unpredictable. You can get my favorite credit card that will cover this, and there are also no foreign transaction fees!

Where to Stay in Iceland

This 8-day Iceland itinerary includes stops in 7 different cities! You are staying in a new city each night, except for the last night you are back in Reykjavik. The cities you will need hotels in are Reykjavik, Akureyri, Lake Myvatn, Egilsstadir, Hofn, and Vik. One of the great things about Iceland is that it has something for everyone and every budget! The average cost per night will be between $150-200 USD.

Throughout the itinerary below, I’ll share exactly where I stayed during my trip to Iceland. However, there are LOTS of options.

Day 1: Reykjavik

Welcome to Iceland! Your Iceland itinerary kicks off in the capital, Reykjavik, after landing at Keflavik International Airport(KEF). You will pick up your rental car and head to your hotel to check in and drop off your luggage.

We got in at 6am so we were VERY early, but our hotel, Hotel Frón, was nice to take our luggage so we could explore until our room was ready.

Reykjavik Food Walk

One of my favorite experiences we did in Reykjavik was the Food Walk. Since our flight got in so early, we booked this on our first day! This has been rated one of the best tours in the city with almost 15,000 5-star reviews! You will start at Harpa Concert Hall to meet your guide, and then you will walk around the city sampling Icelandic cuisine, including the famous hot dog, lamb stew, and fermented shark!

We also learned a lot of history about the city from our guide, and we got to see some iconic landmarks. You will walk past Hallgrimskirkja, the largest church in the country, and the famous Rainbow Street!

I would highly recommend this tour to anybody visiting Reykjavik! It is a great introduction to the city and also a great way to meet some fellow travelers!

Sky Lagoon

After the Food Walk it’s time to relax at the Sky Lagoon! This rivals the famous Blue Lagoon for popularity. At this geothermal oasis you can grab a glass of champagne from the swim-up bar and soak in mineral-rich waters with stunning ocean views. It’s famous for its 7-step ritual that takes you through a hot spring, a cold plunge, a sauna, and a steam room. It’s the perfect way to unwind after your flight!

I highly recommend booking your ticket in advance. You have to select a specific time slot, but you can stay as long as you want! This link will direct you to Get Your Guide who will give you the best price! They offer free cancellation up to a day before, and a “Reserve Now and Pay Later” feature to secure your spot!

Kokteilbarinn

If you still have energy after both of these activities, Reykjavik has some great bars you can stop at on your way back to the hotel!

We went to a place called Kokteilbarinn, which translates to “The Cocktail Bar”. They had an amazing selection of cocktails along with an extensive wine list. The best place to sit is in the Champagne Train! It’s inspired by the glamour of the 1920s and has curtains and velvet seats. It’s a whole vibe and the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail or champagne!

Day 2: Reykjavik – Akureyri

On Day 2, you’ll embark on a 287-mile drive from Reykjavik to Akureyri (the scenic route), trading city charm for Iceland’s northern wilderness. This will be your longest drive of the whole trip, but don’t worry, there are a couple stops along the way! You will want to check out of your hotel pretty early in the morning. Make sure you get some breakfast and hit the road!

Barnafoss/Hraunfossar

On your way to Akureyri, your first stop will be Barnafoss and Hraunfossar. This is approximately 2hrs away from Reykjavik.

These waterfalls were right next to each other! You can park your car and walk to both of them. Both were great to see, and there were several viewpoints to walk and see different angles of each waterfall! We stayed here for about an hour viewing each waterfall, but you can definitely see it all in half the time, if needed!

Kolugljúfur Canyon

You will drive approximately 2 more hours and reach Kolugljúfur Waterfall , which has breathtaking views! We found this to not be as touristy as some other ones, so it was less crowded. It does require you to drive off the main road a little, but this is a hidden gem worth the detour! It does have a parking lot with free parking!

You can view the waterfall from the bridge or take a short hike closer to the falls. The bridge crosses the canyon and allows beautiful views of both sides! We hiked across and were able to get pretty close to the water, but there is no fence, so be careful!

Forest Lagoon

This will be your last stop of the day, and it’s a good one! Forest Lagoon is a geothermal bath near Akureyri that is surrounded by, you guessed it, forest! This was way less touristy than Sky Lagoon, and I think a lot of locals come to this one. I really enjoyed how calming this one was!

You will start by checking in at the desk. They do not provide towels, but you can rent one at check-in. Men and women have separate locker rooms where you are required to take a shower first and then change into your swimsuits.

There are two pools, one big one with two swim-up bars, and a smaller one that is a little warmer. There is also a cold pool and a dry sauna. They recommend going into the cold pool followed by the sauna for all the health benefits! You will want to book this in advance to secure a time slot. You can check for availability below!

Once we were finished in the pools, we showered and made our way over to the Forest Bistro! This is in the same building as Forest Lagoon and is open every day, even for brunch! It’s the perfect spot to grab dinner before heading to your hotel for the night.

Where to Stay in Akureyri

We stayed at Hotel Natur, right outside of Akureyri. We arrived here in the dark, so we couldn’t see much, but it had some of the greatest views when we woke up! They also have an observation tower you can use (stairs only) to get an even better view! This would be the perfect spot to look for the northern lights!

Day 3: Akureyri – Myvatn

Today’s journey requires far less driving than yesterday, about 4hrs in total. Your end location will be Lake Myvatn, another geothermal paradise. You will see two big waterfalls today, and if you’re a Game of Thrones fan, there is a stop for you!

Goðafoss Waterfall

Goðafoss Waterfall will be about a 30-minute drive from Akureyri. This waterfall is a big one that is 11-meters-high! It is known as the “Waterfall of the Gods” as Christianity was declared the official religion in 1000 AD at this site. The parking lot for this site is right off of Rd 1 so you can’t miss it!

There are several easily accessible walking paths to view this waterfall. It is in a horseshoe shape so it does require a lot of walking to see all the viewpoints. If you choose, you can also take a path with a lot of steps to reach the waterfall’s basin. This is a very unique spot and a great for picture taking with the waterfall behind you.

Hverir

Hverir is a very unique place and you will smell it before you see it! It features bubbling mud pools and steaming fumaroles. The rugged landscape feels like another planet! The mud pools and fumaroles can get very hot, up to 212F, so they do have some of the areas roped off.

This is directly off Rd 1 and has a pretty big parking lot. You do have to pay for parking here, and there is a self-service kiosk to pay. If you can get over the sulfur smell, you should definitely check this place out!

Dettifoss Waterfall

Dettifoss Waterfall is one of the most visited sites on the island! It’s the second most powerful waterfall in Europe! Prepare to see lots of tourists here and plan enough time to explore this region! We got here around 9 AM and stayed for a good hour. If you are familiar with the movie Prometheus, this is the waterfall where it was shot!

It’s important to note that there are two entrances to this waterfall, and they both require a short walk to the waterfall.  If you take Road 862, you’ll go to the west side of the waterfall. This is a paved road and the most popular. The walk on the west side of the falls is the longest (800 meters from the parking lot). There are also more parking spaces and public bathrooms on this side.

Road 864 will take you to the east side of Dettifoss. This is an unpaved road that should not be taken without a 4×4 vehicle and is generally closed during the colder months of the year. We attempted to take this route and the road was closed in October. The walk on the east side, is only 400 meters in distance down to Dettifoss, but it takes slightly longer since the path can get pretty steep.

Grjótagjá

Grjótagjá is a lava cave that has a beautiful hot springs with bright blue water inside. The water temperature in this cave is very unpredictable so swimming in it is prohibited.

Grjótagjá became a popular tourist spot when it was featured on Game of Thrones. In episode 4 of season 3, Jon Snow had to prove his loyalty and abandon the Night’s Watch. In a symbolic act, Jon Snow sealed his love with Ygritte in this cave.

The cave is open year-round, but due to its location, it may be harder to access in the winter months. Always check road conditions before starting your drive!

Myvatn Nature Baths

Myvatn Nature Baths is an all-natural geothermal bath that includes a lagoon with a swim-up bar and a steam bath. It is conveniently located off Rd 1 and easy to get to! This will be very similar to Forest Lagoon and a great way to end your day on a relaxing note.

I would recommend booking your tickets in advance as they can sell out! We really wanted to visit this geothermal spa, but it was closed for maintenance on the day we were there.

Cafe Kvika is located at the nature baths and would be a great place to grab dinner before heading back to your hotel for the night. They offer feshly baked bread, sandwiches, fresh salad and the famous geyser bread with smoked arctic char!

Where to Stay in Myvatn

We stayed at Sel-Hotel Myvatn, which is a lakeside hotel that offers a lobby bar, dining, and a couple hot tubs and a sauna! We opted to have dinner at the restaurant here called Bistro Sel & Pizza and it was delicious! Make sure you get a reservation if you want to dine here because they get pretty busy. The lobby bar also had a happy hour featuring their small hand craft brewery, Mývatn öl.

Day 4: Myvatn – Egilsstadir

Today is another shorter driving day with about 4hrs of driving in Iceland’s Eastern region. You will first visit a famous canyon known for its basalt columns, followed by a few waterfalls and the Seydisfjordur church! This was our snowiest day of the trip! We woke up to it snowing and it had already snowed about an inch overnight!

Stuðlagil Canyon

This was about a 2hr drive from Sel-Hotel Myvatn and it was a slow one for us due to the snowy weather conditions. This canyon was in my top things to see in Iceland, and unfortunately, we had a rainy day for it. Don’t let this discourage you if it happens. Iceland’s weather is so unpredictable!

Stuðlagil Canyon is composed of distinctive basalt columns formed from the cooling and crystallization of lava over thousands of years. If you are lucky enough, on a good day you will see the turquoise waters of the canyon create a stunning contrast against the basalt formations, offering a picturesque and unique view!

There are two entrances to see this canyon. The east side requires you to do a hike, but you can get closer to the canyon. There are two parking lots, one further away and one closer, however it will require a 4×4 vehicle to get to it. We couldn’t access this due to the weather so we went to the other side.

The west side doesn’t require a hike and has an overlook that you can climb down to get a better view of the canyon. This overhang requires more than 200 steps! My calves were burning after this one, but it was definitely a cool view! I will also note, there are paid restrooms on this entrance.

Rjúkandifoss Waterfall

On the way out of Stuðlagil Canyon, you will see Rjúkandifoss waterfall. This waterfall wasn’t even on my original list to see, but I have added it to this itinerary because it was worth stopping for! Its serene beauty is perfect for a quick stop.

This waterfall is right off the main road and has a small parking lot. You will need to walk a little way to get to the main viewpoint, but you can also get super close to this waterfall if you choose!

Seydisfjordur Church and Rainbow Street

You probably know Seydisfjordur by the photos of the rainbow street that leads to the little blue church. The drive into this town is very scenic, and there are also a few viewpoints you will want to stop at on your way in or out.

The rainbow street is exactly what it sounds like, a street painted in rainbow colors similar to the one in Reykjavik. It makes for a great photo opportunity!

The street is also lined with some small businesses and restaurants. We stopped at Kaffi Lara El Grillo Bar to have a locally brewed El Grillo beer while we were exploring. They also serve lunch and dinner. It’s a local favorite, but only open seasonally. We went in October, and it was the last month they were open for the year.

Gufu Waterfall

This waterfall is just up the hill from Seydisfjordur, so you can choose to stop here before or after visiting the town. This one caught our eye with how big it was, and it being right off the main road! You can also get really close to the waterfall, but it requires you to go over a lot of slippery rocks.

Vok Baths

You guessed it, another hot spring to close out your day! It’s so nice to go relax in these hot springs after a long day of hiking! It really helps you recover so you can do it all again the next day!

Vok Baths is a little different than the other ones, because there are multiple floating pools with infinity views right on the bank of Urriðavatn Lake. You will catch some people doing a cold plunge right into the lake! There are also two onshore pools, sauna, and a cold mist tunnel if jumping into the lake isn’t your thing.

There is also an in-water bar and a tea bar inside. We received wristbands when we entered, and the bar scanned them every time we got a drink. As we were leaving, we scanned our wristband and paid the tab. It was very convenient! The tea bar is included in your admission price. We grabbed some on our way out and made it back at our hotel!

Where to Stay in Egilsstadir

We stayed at Hotel Eyvindará and it was perfect for the night. We didn’t get there until late so we didn’t use any of the amenities, but they do have 2 hot tubs and a sun terrace.

The hotel is located outside of town, so it is also a good spot to possibly catch the northern lights! We were not lucky enough to see them here, but when I read the reviews, a lot of people said they did.

Day 5: Egilsstadir – Hofn/Diamond Beach

Today it is time to discover the East Fjords with their small fishing villages and high mountains. The journey will be approximately 5 hours and 200 miles of driving. Google Maps will probably want you to take Rd 930 or Rd 95, as they are shorter, but also more dangerous in the winter time. Take the longer route to follow Rd 1, and enjoy the views!

This was my favorite drive of all 8 days! Rd 1 will take you all along the Atlantic coast, and at times the road hangs precariously high on the mountain slopes providing a spectacular view! There are several little waterfalls you will see from the road, too, and we stopped a few times to get out of the car and take in the view!

Barkináfoss

This was our first bigger waterfall stop of the day! This waterfall is right off the main road, so you can’t miss it! We ended up parking our car just off the road, as there was no parking lot. This is a waterfall you could just slow down for and see from the road, or for us it was a great opportunity to get out of the car and stretch our legs! The views of the waterfall are great, and once you climb up the hill and get closer, the views behind you are just as good!

Skútafoss

Skútafoss is a waterfall that will take you on a little detour off Rd 1, but I would recommend stopping! This is often referred to as the hidden waterfall, as you will not see it until you are pretty close. From the parking lot, you will have to walk along a river that bends into Skútafoss. Once you see it, you can get really close and even stand behind the water in the cave! Can you see the person behind it in my photo below? This is truly a hidden gem!

Viking Café

The Viking Café was a cozy spot to stop and recharge! They are known for their waffles, but they also serve sandwiches along with coffee, tea, and some alcoholic beverages. There is free parking and public restrooms available. It was fairly busy when we went, but they served us quickly!

Jökulsárlón/Diamond Beach

Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon is a famous glacial lake known for its floating icebergs and seal sightings! You can’t miss this stop! You can park in one parking lot and walk to both attractions!

There are a couple boat tours you can take to get closer to the icebergs. We opted not to do one because it was really cold, but if you visit on a nice day I think it would be a cool experience!

Diamond Beach is right across from the lagoon. This is a black sand beach that has big iceberg fragments that look like diamonds!

Múlagljúfur Canyon

Múlagljúfur Canyon is a hidden treasure for those who love a good hike! You will turn right off Rd 1, and there are no signs for the canyon, so make sure you are watching your maps closely! You will drive on a gravel road for a while before getting to the free parking lot.

There are two different versions of this hike. The first one is shorter and will stop at the classic viewpoint (what you see in my picture below), and if you have more time you can continue on the path that will stop at the top of the canyon, closer to the Mulafoss Waterfall. The hiking trail can be hard to see at times, so make sure you just follow the yellow stakes!

We started this hike pretty late in the day and didn’t have time to do the longer path, but the shorter path is still worth it! The first viewpoint is so beautiful and will take your breath away!

Where to Stay in Hofn

We stayed at Adventure Hotel Hof. This is a very budget-friendly hotel that offers free breakfast. They have rooms with shared and private bathrooms. Our stay was good, and it was only 20 minutes from our glacier walk we scheduled for the next morning.

Day 6: Hofn – Vik

Day 6 is only about 140 miles of driving to the charming town of Vik. We started our day with a glacier hike at Skaftafell, you will then get to see a picturesque canyon, the famous black sand beach, eat some black crust pizza, and end the day with an epic waterfall!

Skaftafell Glacier Hike

We started our day with a glacier hike! This is a bucket-list experience for a lot of people, and it did not disappoint!

You have to do this with an organized tour because it’s not safe to do this by yourself. The ice is constantly melting and changing, so you have to go with an experienced guide who knows the current conditions of the ice.

Get Your Guide has lots of tour options for this depending on the group size and level of difficulty. The tours usually include all the gear you need, except make sure you have a nice pair of hiking boots that go around the ankle and of course dress warm!

Fjaðrárgljúfur

You don’t want to miss this must-see river canyon! It’s currently the background picture on my computer, that’s how good it is! This is going to be a very popular tourist spot, so prepare for a bigger crowd here. There is a lot of parking, but you do have to pay for it.

The canyon is a little over a mile long, and the trail starts at the parking lot. Beware, it’s all uphill until you turn around and come back. There are a lot of viewpoints on the way up, but they have some areas roped off where you can’t go. There are lots of great photo opportunities!

Skool Beans Micro Roaster

Skool Beans Micro Roaster is a café in a school bus! It is a great stop on your way to the beach to grab a coffee and warm up! They also have sweet and savory snacks available.

Inside the bus they have limited seating with burning logs where you can look out the windows towards the beach. Their coffee and tea menu is expansive for how small it is, and it was delicious!

Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach

Reynisfjara, known for its black sands, basalt columns, and Atlantic waves, is a must-see on Iceland’s south coast. This is a very popular tourist spot, so be prepared for big crowds!

Although it is a bucket list location for many, it is also very dangerous! This is due to what they call sneaker waves. These powerful waves can appear suddenly, reaching much farther up the shore than expected. Many visitors underestimate the size, leading to accidents and even fatalities in the past. There is a sign with green, yellow, and red lights to warn you of the current conditions.

Black Crust Pizzeria

Black Crust Pizzeria is one of the more unique pizza places in Iceland and, simply put, one of the best! It’s the perfect place to grab dinner and drinks after exploring the beach. It was VERY busy when we got there for dinner, and we had to wait about an hour for a table but it was worth it! We had their black crust pizza with langoustine, truffle-infused cream cheese, red onions, rucola, and herbs. Yum!

Skógafoss Waterfall

Skógafoss is a waterfall not to be missed! You also can’t miss it, because it’s right off the highway and towers almost 200ft! There is no entrance or parking fee at this one!

This is one of the bigger falls where you can get super close without standing behind railings. There is also an optional hike you can do that will take you up to the top of the waterfall and along the river. The full hike is about 5 miles, but you can also just climb the stairs to the top for that viewpoint. You can see the lookout point at the top of my left picture.

Where to Stay in Vik

We stayed outside of Vik at a place called Hotel Drangshlid. It’s very close to Skógafoss if you want to make that your last stop of the day. This budget-friendly hotel has small rooms, but it was nice and clean with free breakfast. It was also very calm and quiet and would be a great spot to see the Northern Lights!

Day 7: Vik – Reykjavik

Your last full day in Iceland will be a busy one! You’ll have lots of stops on your way back to Reykjavik, completing the Ring Road loop! I have included lunch at the popular tomato farm! We also did a Lava Tunnel Cave tour, which both of these are optional, but highly recommended if you can fit them in!

Seljalandsfoss/Gljúfrabúi

You have made it to one of the most famous waterfalls in Iceland! Have you seen the photos where people are standing behind a giant waterfall? Well, this is Seljalandsfoss! Make sure you have some rain gear with you if you want to go explore behind it. It will take about 10 minutes to walk to it from the parking lot.

Gljúfrabúi is one of the forgotten waterfalls because everyone comes to see Seljalandsfoss and doesn’t know this one is a 5 minutes walk away! I thought this waterfall was just as cool, if not better!

This waterfall is in a small canyon, surrounded by bright green moss-covered cliffs. You will have to walk through a narrow entrance that is a little stream with a few bigger rocks to step on. Once you get inside, there is a big rock between you and the basin of the waterfall. It’s a pretty cool experience being right below it!

Gullfoss Falls

Gullfoss is one of Iceland’s main waterfalls, known for its dramatic multi-step cascade. Along with the waterfall, there is a visitor center and restaurant onsite. It’s a great place to pick up gifts or keepsakes to remember your trip.

Since this is a popular tourist spot, there is a free parking lot and public bathrooms. There are several walking paths and viewing platforms around Gullfoss that offer stunning views of the waterfall and canyon!

Strokkur

Strokkur is a geothermal field where you can see one of the world’s few active geysers. It erupts approximately every 6-10 minutes, shooting boiling hot water up to 130ft into the air!

You can take a walk around the area, but make sure you stay behind the ropes. The geothermal field is full of bubbling mud pools and other geysers too! This stop wasn’t that exciting for me. It was very busy, and we spent most of our time just standing around waiting for it to erupt.

Brúarfoss

A visit to Brúarfoss is a spectacle where glacial water pours into a deep, cerulean blue lagoon. This was another one of my favorites! You can get really close to this one because there are several inlets and a bridge you can use to take really good photos! The blue water is just mesmerizing!

There are two paths to reach this waterfall. The newly established parking lot, a recent addition as of 2023, provides a brief, 5-minute walk straight to the waterfall. We chose this route for the sake of time. Alternatively, you can take the traditional hiking trail, which is a bit more challenging and extends for almost 4 miles. On this trail, you will also see several smaller cascades.

Friðheimar

Friðheimar offers a unique dining experience with fresh greenhouse-grown tomato dishes! They use geothermal energy, artificial lights, and a climate-control system to grow tomatoes and other vegetables all year round!

We thought this was one of the best places we stopped on the Ring Road! Every dish was crafted to include all their fresh ingredients, and they even have a basil plant on each table so you can add it to your dish. If you want to stop here for lunch, seating is very limited. I would highly recommend making a reservation in advance.

Lava Tunnel Tour

Raufarholshellir, one of the longest lava tunnels in Iceland, offers a surreal journey through volcanic history. This was a very informative tour, and the guide did a great job going over all the history and facts. This was a very cool experience! Admission includes essential safety gear, such as helmets and lights.

Where to Stay in Reykjavik

We booked another night at Hotel Frón where we stayed the first night. It was a convenient location downtown where we could walk to go out for dinner and grab a drink. If Hotel Frón is not available for your dates, Hotel Von is another great option, also centrally located!

Day 8: Blue Lagoon-Airport

Your Iceland Itinerary concludes with a relaxing morning before heading home. We had a later flight and we were able to fit in the Blue Lagoon before going to the airport. Since this is on the way to the airport, it was a great way to kill time before our flight!

We bought the package deal that came with admission, a drink, and a face mask. We really loved Blue Lagoon and even with there being a lot of people, there is a lot of space to walk and relax.

This is a world famous spa and does require you to book in advance! Check below to see if it’s available on your dates!
