Hi All -
We will be traveling along the South Coast from Reykjavík to Skaftafell and back over 5 days in June. Need some help on how we could break up the trip. We were originally going to stay Night 2 on Heimaey Island, but the ferry is unavailable on that day so now I have to change plans and do that later in the trip. I had a buffer day planned at the end of the trip to stay in Hella for a possible Landmannalaugar Tour. So swapping those two days doesn't make much sense. This is just causing me a creative block and I can't figure out how to make this work now.
One option is to drive from Þingvellir to Skaftafell in one day, is that too far?
This was our original plan
Night 1 - Þingvellir National Park
Night 2 - Heimaey Island
Night 3 - Skaftafell
Night 4 - Hella (Buffer day)
Night 5 - Reykjavík
