View from the mountain outside of Reykjavík.
Yesterday #hike up to Mt.Esja it was raining heavily all the way but it was very refreshing 🐶😄💦 #hiking
On the way to Borgarnes before the long tunnel you are driving on this road...it's was a cloudy morning.
We went for a awsome #hike this morning, on mt. Esja 587 meters, it was not very easy, we had a lot of wind, ice and snow, but on the way down it was possible to stop and enjoy this beautiful view 😄👍🏻🐶 #iceland #hiking
