The road is long, but we had planned a few stops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\">First stop: a hot spring I spotted in my notes... except it apparently no longer exists. We improvise and finally settle down near a small church for lunch in the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\">Then, around a bend, a completely improbable stop: a wooden hut sheltering a pool of scalding water, at the side of the road. A quick bath, hair still steaming, and we&#039;re off again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\">A little further on, there&#039;s a place close to my heart: a huge natural pool discovered by chance in 2008, lost at the end of the world. I hadn&#039;t found it in 2016, and seeing it again today brings back memories of a distant conversation... perhaps it was here that the Hornstrandir was first mentioned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\">The final stretch to \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, where a guesthouse awaits us. No tent to pitch tonight, no improvised breakfast tomorrow: just a real bed, a roof, and a little warmth before plunging into the unknown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\">The bags are packed, heavy with food. Tomorrow, I&#039;ll wake up at dawn for an 8 a.m. departure. Seven or eight days off the grid, in a region where anything is possible. The excitement is mounting... and so is the apprehension. I must be unbearable, going through all the &quot;what ifs&quot; out loud over and over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\">Tomorrow is the big leap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/inkavik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/img_6108.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inkavik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/img_6108.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/inkavik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/img_6108-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/inkavik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/img_6108-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The interior of the shed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\">#Inkavik #10August2025 #Iceland #Roadtrip #Westfjords #Gj\u00f6virdalslaug #HotSpring #Hornstrandir #CarnetDeVoyage #Isafjordur #SlowAdventure #IcelandTravel #IntoTheWild #VoyageMinimalist<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udccd \/\/\/newbie.guacamole.confuses D\u00e9part depuis notre aire de repos, cap sur \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur.
