Icelandic Jamboree 2024
Day 4 PreTour South Coast

Date: July 10 , 2024

Day 4

For Day 4, we planned to mostly head back west to the Golden Circle for brief sightseeing there prior to Jamboree.  Day 4 included:

• Skaftafellsjökull Glacier 4-Mile Hike

• Svartifoss - Magnúsarfoss - Hundafoss Waterfalls 3-Mile Hike vs Swimming in Vik

• Consideration for Secret Lagoon if time allowed for this

• Kerid Crater

• Transportation to Villa for 2 nights of lodging in Golden Circle

Tjaldsvæðið í Skaftafelli

We awoke to a gorgeous morning at Tjaldsvæðið í Skaftafelli.  We discussed options and most were interested in a Glacier Hike.  Another Waterfall Hike sounded great to half of the group, but the other half was maxed out on waterfalls and was more interested in swimming or shopping.

After packing up, we set out on the Glacier Walk and would revisit options afterwards.

Skaftafellsjökull Glacier 4-Mile Hike

The Glacier walk was a lot of fun and was different than the waterfall hikes we did over the last few days.

Svartifoss - Magnúsarfoss - Hundafoss Waterfalls 3-Mile Hike vs Swimming in Vik

After seeing so many waterfalls over the past few days, half of the group wanted to do something different.  After doing a vote, we had exactly a carload that wanted to head to the pool.  The rest would stay at the Tjaldsvæðið í Skaftafelli and visit the Hundafoss, Magnúsarfoss, and Svartifoss waterfalls.

Swimming in Vik

Most of our Scouts went to Vik to have a Swim

Kerid Crater

The Kerid Crater was an easy stop on the way to Villa.
