Trailhead for the path along Svartisvatnet to the glacier

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Be careful, the path is just a beaten track along the edge of the bank. Difficult to pass because wet or muddy everywhere!

Good view of the glacial lake. Impressive mountain country. The ascent to the lake requires good equipment.

Great experience and nice hike! You can only go to the glacier tongue, if you can climb a bit, but our 5-year-old son did it without any problems.
