冰岛皮划艇终极攻略

皮划艇(kayak)在冰岛是一项比较小众的探险运动。提到冰岛的户外旅行项目,大家或许会首先想到冰川徒步或火山遨游,观鲸或骑马;但要说到皮划艇与漂流等水上项目,就很少有游客体验过了。实际上,小众的皮划艇运动其实好玩又省钱,还能为人们解锁冰岛自然的新潮玩法:在教会山下悠游而过,在杰古沙龙冰河湖中泛舟而行,在西峡湾中感受世界尽头的无尽静谧…

冰岛钻石圈终极攻略 | 自然景点+特色旅行项目

北极圈下的冰岛是个蕞尔小岛,却遍布着极为多样的自然奇观;也正因岛屿面积有限,这些自然景点的位置也彼此相近,从而汇聚成各大美景无限的热门景区。例如冰岛西南岸的黄金圈,就由辛格维利尔国家公园、盖歇尔间歇泉地热区与黄金瀑布三大位置毗邻的景点组成。在冰岛北部,也有着一处美景无限的热门景区,其自然地理的纷繁与绝美不输黄金圈,因此被誉为“钻石圈”

EVENT: "Strell Ytzia Blossom: A Utopian Drag Show" | June 7th 2018, Gaukurinn

Iceland is famed for its entrepreneurship, tolerance and creativity, a trinity that have come to a head with the recent IndieGoGo campaign for estranged magazine, founded by long-term residents and editors, Kaspars Bekeris and Matthias Boyer. These efforts will reach a shuddering climax on June 7th with the show "Strell Ytzia Blossom: A Utopian Drag Show". Read on for more.

Iceland Proposes Circumcision Ban | Opinion

Iceland Proposes Circumcision Ban | Opinion

Icelandic MPs have made international headlines this year with a bill proposing to ban male circumcision. The bill has been met with condemnation from religious leaders, yet has the majority backing of Iceland's domestic population and major political parties. If the bill succeeds, Iceland will be the first country in Europe to ban male circumcision. Oh, how the debate rages... should, or should we not circumcise our children? There does seem to be plenty of justification, doesn’t there? Shall we list them together like a prenatal Christmas list? Well, the ethereal usefulness of religious

Swimming Pool Etiquette in Iceland

First and foremost, if you expect to soothe yourself in one of Iceland’s swimming pools, be warned—you will be expected to shower first, buck-naked, scrubbing your dangly bits in front of a watchful sanitation warden. Read on to find out more. Having been raised in the commonwealth, I am accustomed to bathing and, in fact, luxuriating in waters likely to be befouled by human filth, be it excrement or something even more unsavoury. The Icelanders, unbeholden to civilised accustom, have chosen a cultural keepsake that defies logic; the need to cleanse themselves before entering the ethereal w

A Day's Ice Caving with Katla Track

With winter coming to an end, Guide To Iceland decided to spend some time with Katla Track, an adventure tour and sightseeing operator based in Vík í Mýrdal, to gain a closer look at their popular Fast Track Ice Caving tour, the only one of its kind available during the summer. Read on for more information.  Blinking into consciousness, I was, for a moment, confused to find myself lying in a bed that was not own, and even felt a slight jolt of the excitement at the thought that, perhaps, I’d had something of a lucky night. As waking life took hold, it dawned on me slowly that I was at Midgar

Read on to find out all about Guide to Iceland's trip to Þórsmörk with Midgard Adventure.  Despite my best intentions, I’m often prone to negative thinking, easily able to scapegoat, justify and question the world around me without, I might add, real passion or elegance, but rather, a morbid waiting-room ambience that settles itself in the brain and begins, almost subconsciously, to speak for me. I am a man who needs a rattle every so often, or I

How To Avoid Cycling In Iceland

Everyone loves a cyclist—that is until they’re driving alongside one, at which point, they become a dangerous nuisance, likely to record every moment of your frustration on their readily equip helmet-camera. Before you know it, your unrelenting anger is showcased to the world through YouTube; within a week, you’ll find yourself before a tribunal, attempting to justify your reaction to a jury of cyclists. Then, your license is banned. You’re facing a five-year jail term for road rage. Thank you, bikie. From: 2-Day Biking Tour | Snaefellsjokull Glacier From All Sides. When not engaged in r

Naming Names | The Mystery of the Icelandic Naming Committee & Other Cases. 

Icelandic naming tradition uses a patronymic or, more rarely, matronymic system, meaning the suffix -son ('son') or -dóttir ('daughter') is added to the genitive form of the father's name, ie. Ólafur Jónsson is the son of Jón Einarsson. Names in Iceland must also be pre-approved by law—but who holds the authority to accept what names are and are not acceptable? Read on to find out more about the mysterious minds of the Icelandic Naming Committee.  Names are funny, aren’t they?  If your answer is ‘not particularly’, I would resoundingly agree with you, save for two obvious exceptions; cel

Reykjavik Folk Festival 2018

Iceland’s long tradition of folk music was celebrated in full force this weekend (1-3 March 2018), as the first night of Reykjavik’s annual Folk Festival got underway. Once again, I was to sit there appreciating each performance, sipping away at cold Einstök as the musicians rolled out one by one to delight with their eclectic range of talents. See Also: Music in Iceland. Concert Photos taken by Kaspars Bekeris  Held on the first floor of Kex Bar and Hostel, in a wide, red-lit hall, the festival enters its eighth year, drawing an ever-increasing fanbase to its rich tapestry of community, l
