Rémi, mountain leader, proposes you to discover a little frequented Iceland, wilder, very rural, between fjords and fishing. You will visit two National Parks having a strong naturalist interest with in the program seals, polar foxes, puffins and many other birds.

During 10 days, you will follow a route that goes up the west coast and its fjords to the northern tip, before descending through the interior of the highlands and the "golden circle" to finish your trip in the peninsula of Reykjanes.

The chosen period is the month of June in order for you to enjoy a strong animal activity and magnificent atmospheres.
