We are on the edge to write a new Icelandic saga. In a few days, we will embark on a plane direction: Iceland.
10 years ago we were leaving Iceland after an incredible time there. Now we are going back with our bicycle to explore it differently.
Iceland is an amazing place, but it is a difficult one too, especially on a bike. The weather is harsh, the wind strong, the roads are tricky and bridges only exist on road #1! But Iceland is a magical place, it’s wild, it’s colourful, it’s warm and cold.
Small facts about Iceland
- Population: 317 000
- Area: 103 000 km2

- Sheep: 500 000
Yes, after New Zealand, this is another country that we will be cycling where they are more sheep than humans!
