No Experience Required
The minivan eases away from Reykjavik before dawn and the capital’s sodium glow shrinks behind you, replaced by an expanding strip of lava fields, sheep-lined roads, and the slow reveal of the southern coast. On day one the road narrates Iceland’s violent geology: cliffs scored by waterfalls, black sand that seems to absorb light, and the steady drift of a glacier on the horizon.
