Iceland is a true dream destination for outdoor lovers & landscape photographers due its impressive, dramatic landscape. It is a volcanically and geologically active Nordic island country of Europe located in the North Atlantic Ocean. With its volcanoes, guysers, geothermal hot springs and its many waterfalls as well as glaciers it truly is the often claimed land of fire and ice.
Traveling Icelands Ring Road is the perfect way to get to know the country on and off the tourist paths. Therefore we took about 2 weeks to get to know Iceland properly by exploring waterfalls, canyons, hot springs, glacier caves, black beaches and of course the stunning coastlines all around the island finishing off in Reykjavik with the countries biggest music festival called „Iceland Airwaves“

I Wan't To Live In Ice Land Some Day.

Excellent video for an Iceland visitor
Many thanks!

EINFACH GEIL !!! Schönes Video der Highlights. Die Gletscherhöhle muss ich auch noch bei der nächsten Gelegenheit besuchen.
LG Jörg
Auf jeden Fall - aber dann erst ab Mitte November...dann bekommt man die richtig großen zu sehen ;)
We love this place
i love this 😭 really want to go to iceland😍
I m from India..22 years old.. don't have a job..but I promise you..I will there one day
…...just a great series!!! :-)
Hi. I saw your collab with Gareth. Subscribed! 😊 I hope I get to visit Iceland real soon. My boyfriend and I are trying to decide where to go next year.
Awesome! I hope the video helps you find some cool spots to enjoy ;)
Super bro
Great Video, May i know when (which month) this video was taken? Because I am planning a trip there next year.
Ich finde es immer wieder witzig, dass man als Deutscher sofort hört, wenn ein anderer Deutscher Englisch spricht 😂
Super Video
Iceland is like heaven
Thanks for this awesome video! Are these places generally accessible during the Winter? I am going in November! :D
Alma Anides they also went in November! Beginning of November though
Fantastic video. However, the footage that is labelled as Stokksnes is actually from Eystrahorn, and the Hvalnes Nature Reserve. Stokksnes is approximately 40 minutes drive to the west.
Great vid! I will deffo head over to Iceland now. By the way, how long would you recommend to see most of Iceland? Is two weeks ideal.... I don’t want to rush it
2 weeks are good to do the ring road like we did!
Hi ! How you make that awesome map ?!
Landmannalaugar and Thorsmörk should not be missing on any top list imo. Nice video.
Sure - I haven't visitied as it was not that time of year..need to do on my next visit!
Image quality is stunning and colors are beautiful. Which editing program do you use? Did you use any LUTs? I'm going to iceland this august and i could really use an hint for good presets and color grading
Hey, I always edit with final cut and only apply simple color correction/grading. I basically balance the highs and lows, plus I add a slight filter from the basic effects (teal orange)...nothing too special 😜
Can’t wait to go after this virus is gone 😍😍
I Wan't To Go But im still student 😆
see you soon
First Indian to see your video 😍😂💙😂
Do you have some details about a renting a car.. That would be kind, your Video is really nice ;)
Check out the other video "How to travel Iceland"...also I'm in the process of writing a detailed post on this!
Me and my girlfriend want to go this February this video just makes us want to go more. Is February a good time to go or will there be too much snow? and is 5 days enough time to see the places you recommend?
Check my how to video & the related guide on the Blog where I cover all this!

Pro tip if you come to iceland... Common sense is underrated, DO NOT leave it at home when traveling here. I have seen to many tourists in winter that think its no problem to drive here in blizzards, and or they try to go to places they cant reach. And winter months can be extremely hit or miss. There are times when we have constant snow, Then there's times we have next to no snowfall for weeks. But most of the places on this list you can get to all year round given the roads have been cleared, and the golden circle route is usually kept clear of snow all winter. But places in the highlands (nr 4 i think will be closed off, but not sure) are not open during winter.
Pl. suggest februvary is perfect month to visit iceland.
Hi I went in Feb, I think one of the best months (not so cold and not many people) ruclips.net/video/3X-lIk25sNs/видео.html

Great video. Went there last Oct. Loved it. I have a video on my channel, check it out when you have a moment
Thanks,
Leo
