Finally, we found an absolute gem of a path in Höfði nature preserve. An odd Icelandic location covered in trees, it was a husband-wife passion project in the mid 20th century. Donated to the country in the 1970, it also offers an awesome view of the free-standing lava pillars called Klasar.

@bjhess Now you make me want to go there. 🤩

@odd It’s a short flight!

@bjhess I didn’t know Iceland had trees that tall! 🙂

@jthingelstad They were like…full trees! Was funny since we just left the tiny, mangled birch of the lava field.

@prealpinux 🙌

@bjhess this all reminded our family of one the Iceland jokes a guide told us on our trip (day 11):

Q: What do you do if you are lost in an Icelandic forest?

A: Stand up.

🤣

@jthingelstad Ahahaha. A good one–and true!
