We are considering a 3 hour Glaciar hike on Fjallsurlon and wondered how this hike compared to it as far as scenery goes. Can anyone who has done both give their opinion?

I'm trying to figure out how much time it will take to see and explore this glacier. Some reviews are saying it's a short five minute walk from the car park, while others are saying it is quite difficult, slippery and you need to be prepared to hike a long distance uphill. Is there part of the glacier you can hike to that's farther away or something?

The glacier itself is heavily crevassed and I would not try to climb on it without proper equipment. There's a plaque at the base of the path memorializing 2 German hikers who went on the glacier some years ago - and never came back. That said, you can walk quite some distance up the path (which runs alongside the glacier). There may be some rock scrambling, depending on how far up you go. The road from the main highway to the parking area is quite bumpy and full of holes; you must drive slowly but you do not need 4WD to do it.
广告Hike to world-class waterfalls, kayak into dramatic fjords & visit secluded seaside towns. Enjoy the long summer days searching for humpback whales, nesting puffins & gannets.
