Hi Mike9129, great journey and travel guide. Really want to go to Iceland and travel in your way~
Is there any camping station/park there in Iceland. Or it is OK to camp anywhere?
Only seen this now sorry!
There are quite a few camping parks around the country, we used google maps to find all the ones we stayed in! alot of them are quite good, they have common rooms and wifi and showers, so you should be covered for alot of things, but it did cost €30+ per night to setup 2 tents, depending on where we were! The tent rental was pretty cheap too for the week, I can find the name of the shop in Reykjavik we got our stuff from if you want to know more about it.
originally we were planning on booking a campervan to travel, but after having been, I'd say a jeep and tents are the way to go, we wouldn't have been able to drive half as fast, or to close to as many places as we did in a campervan - alot of the roads there aren't tarred, they're just gravel, and you can go down alot of them that dont have bridges too so your driving through rivers!
I'd love to have brought the inspire with me, but charging would've been a massive pain, and we were stuck for space with 5 of us and our luggage for the week in the car, but if you can go over, rent a car and afford using a site like bookings.com to get accommodation as you go, it'd be one of the most spectacular places in the world you could go to fly.
the one bit of advice i will give if you are going camping tho, make sure and buy the underlay for between your sleeping bag and the ground, youll have a much better time when your not sleeping directly on the cold ground! |
