The Interior of Iceland is a rugged snowy territory, accessible only in summer.

[edit] Cities

None, actually.

[edit] Other destinations

Anyone's biggest worry in the interior is to run out of petrol. Here are a few places to look out for. Accommodation is available in all of them as well as food.

• Hótel Hrauneyjar is a small hotel located in the southern interior, just north of Mt. Hekla.

• Hveravellir is located near the exact center of Iceland, between Langjökull and Hofsjökull glaciers. It's located near the main mountain track, Kjölur.

Bring your own provisions. There is no guarantee that you will find food anywhere. But you can safely drink water from any stream.

[edit] Stay safe

The easiest, cheapest and safest way to venture into the interior is by BSI bus (special 4x4 buses with experienced drivers). Renting a 4X4 is very expensive and must be done in advance. It's best to travel with at least one other car as conditions are extreme. Remember that off-road driving is prohibited in Iceland because it contributes to erosion and can be very dangerous.
