The Laugavegur Trail is a journey like no other, winding through Iceland’s most stunning landscapes.  Every day of hiking this legendary 55km (34 mi) trail feels like stepping into a different world, with black sand deserts, steaming geothermal fields, lush green valleys, and highlights like the multicolored rhyolite mountains of Landmannalaugar and the serene valleys of Þórsmörk.  However, Laugavegur demands more than just a love of hiking. Unpredictable weather, glacier-fed river crossings, and the need for careful logistics, like booking huts far in advance, can make planning tricky. Plus, add-ons like the Fimmvörðuháls Pass, while beautiful, add complexity to the trek. Without proper preparation, this dream hike can become overwhelming. This is where we come in! Hosted by an expert local guide, our webinar will explain what it feels like to experience every unforgettable vista, soak in every hot spring, and navigate every challenge on this iconic trail. From route details and must-see detours to tips on fitness, gear, and logistics, you’ll leave knowing what the Laugavegur Trail is all about.
