July 2025

All four of us had a phenomenal time. I can’t imagine more gorgeous terrain or a better route to experience the variety of landscapes of the park. I would definitely say a well developed appreciation for getting out there and solid fitness are prerequisites for this trip, though. It’s quite a walk! Also, I should mention that the tents, sleeping bags, and food Svanhvít and her partner provided for us were top notch. Great stuff!

Awesome trek with wonderful guideMy wife and I did the Núpsstaðaskógar trek in Iceland with Dan in July 2022. Between amazing hiking and scenery and Dan’s wonderful guiding, it was a perfect trip. The route, selected by Dan, passes through spectacular, varied and diverse terrain. Broad green valleys with streams and impressive waterfalls. High desolate plateaus and ridges with big views of glaciers, peaks and the Vatanjokull ice cap. Full day glacier crossing. Fabulous campsites. Were completely alone for the whole trip. Dan is a fantastic guide. Fun to hang out with, good stories and conversation, high level of technical skills, patient and supportive and attentive, well organized. I can unreservedly recommend this trip and Dan – one of the highlights of our trip to Iceland.

Unreal views and great guidingI did a guided trip in Iceland with Dan and it was a fantastic experience! We were hiking over some pretty slippery terrain near Skeiðarárjökull glacier. The conditions were tough at times but Dan made sure everyone felt safe. He was very attentive during the hike especially when crossing the more challenging areas. I would definitely recommend Dan as a guide. He is really good at assessing when to push you a little beyond your comfort zone and when you need a hand. Thanks for the awesome trip Dan!

M2M IcelandThe most supportive, helpful and confidence giving experience with these two in Iceland. They made the whole trip so memorable with their knowledge and were part of our team from day one, not just our guides. Thank you
