The Highlands are usually referred to as the central area of Iceland, located 400m above sea level, covering approximately 76% of the land’s surface area. Icelanders often refer to it as óbyggðir – or uninhabited country.
Roads accessing this area often open in late June and typically close at the beginning of October if the autumn is mild. This short window gives enthusiastic photographers only a few months a year to explore and enjoy the many breathtaking locations this area offers.
