Our summer in Thórsmörk – Photo gallery

We have gathered together our favourite pictures from the 2019 season. They were taken by our Trailteam volunteers and tell the story of our summer adventures together in Thórsmörk and Goðaland and out on the Laugavegur Trail.

This season we were joined by 50 international volunteers and together we completed more than 200 weeks of practical work. As always, we focused on maintaining the area’s hiking trails but this season the teams also planted trees with our colleagues at the Tumastaðir Forestry Station.

A short film from Thórsmörk

On a cold and rainy January afternoon we needed a little reminder of Icelandic summer.

This short film was made by Johnny Rolt and Ollie Campbell when they joined us 2017. It is a really beautiful film and it captures life at the volunteer camps and our work projects in Thórsmörk, Goðaland and along the Laugavegurinn trail. For anyone joining us for the first time this season, the film gives a good idea of what to expect from our volunteer placements.

We wanted to share this amazing film once again.
Sit back and enjoy a few minutes of summer…
