The Laugavegur Trail is renowned for its diverse and unique geological features, but hiking anywhere in Iceland is about as close to experiencing the lunar surface as most of us will get. The route linked above covers the whole Laugavegur hike, but a popular day option is the 10-mile round trip from Landmannalaugar to Brennisteinsalda. The trek leads you through geothermal hot springs, colorful rhyolite mountains, and vast lava fields, showcasing Iceland's unique and otherworldly landscape.
