Bikepacking Iceland Westfjords Alone 

Thanks for watching my film! If you liked it, I would MASSIVELY grateful if you could give it a thumbs up 👍 and subscribe to my channel. ALSO Follow me on Instagram here: instagram.com/cycling366/ Happy Bikepacking! - Tom :)

That looked incredible. Fantastic filming.

Best one yet! We'll done!

Loved watching this! Your experiences with the wind and the weather bring back great memories of when I cycled around the Ring Road. Your drone shot of the sun hitting the cloud covered mountains gave me goosebumps. When the sun is out in Iceland, it's one of my favorite places on the planet.

Gem of a video. Amazing scenery, beautifully shot, not too much chat. Perfect 👍

I kept hoping the sun would come out for you! Beautiful countryside, thank you for taking us along ❤️

Superb video. Absolutely stunning scenery there.

Another great video with stunning scenery, thanks for posting 👍

Wow 🙌🙌🤗🤗 what a beautiful place and dream destination"Iceland"🥰🥰🇵🇭

I just came back from the Westfjords. Never imagined someone would bike that. This video is absolutely amazing !

Beautiful scenery, nicely made video ... thank you for allowing me to travel with you

Nice wild 😊

Excellent video and stunning drone work! I take my hat off to your determination. Great to watch.

SUPERBE SUPERBE SUPERBE !!! TOP TOP TOP VIDEO

What a great video

Good Job

Quite an adventure, beautifully filmed, despite the - let's say - inclement conditions. I cheated a few years back by taking the hire car across Breiðafjörður on the ferry and then using it as a mobile base for day-trips on my bike. So no will-I-or-won't-I-die moments, but at the same time much less challenging than bikepacking, as very little had to be carried each day. Exploring each of the finger peninsulas pointing towards Greenland was good fun, though, and Dynjandi waterfall (halfway to Ísafjörður) has to be seen to be believed, after even a small amount of rain. Had a night on Flatey too (pronounced 'flat-ay'), mainly a haven for birdwatchers. There was an Icelandic-TV serial set there about five years ago (1970s in the storyline) called The Flatey Enigma, which gives a really good impression of what life was like there just a couple of generations ago. No longer on iPlayer, but with BBC Four being threatened with demotion to an internet-only archive channel it may well re-appear ...

Lovely video despite the weather, that campsite is a little gem. Wanted to go bikepacking to Iceland for 45 years but never made it :( You were quite right to check into the hotel nothing worse than getting so wet and cold that leads to hypothermia had that last year in summer on a night ride torrential rain, thunder lightening and hail, waterproofs failed. It was only due to the kindness of a stranger giving me and my bike a lift to shelter that I was okay.

Very well put together . I really appreciate the BTS footage and information at the end of the video. May I ask what camera you used and what drone?

Amazing!

Absolutely amazing video. How do you fit it all in!?!

Looks fun! planning on doing a similar trip this summer. Wondering if you could point out where exactly that public pool and campsite were on day 2? Also is there generally free camping around or do you have to pay for most things. Thanks! Edit: think I found it; Reykjarfjordur?

Great video! I am planning a similar trip as yours, you mentioned there is free parking in Stykkisholmur, is that in the ferry terminal or elsewhere in the town?

Awesome film, I love it. How easy/hard was it taking your drone there? Are the rules relaxed or were you made to jump through hoops like some other countries.

Wow amazing fliming must took along time to edit good job .. is reason you went pannier setup than a bikepacking setup

Great video and thanks for the tips! I am planning a bikepacking trip there next year and but I am not sure how to plan the distances. In the UK, I can do road riding of 100km per day in places like Scotland or the national parks in England, with up to 1.5k of elevation gain per day. Based on your experience, what would you think to be an achievable/ safe target distance per day considering the unpredictable weather, elevation and gravel roads in the Westfjords? Also, planning to do it in June/ July/ August.

I am glad to have found your video. I am flying to Iceland this coming September for 35 days alone to bike tour the country. Westfjord surely on my list. Btw, were you staying mostly at hotels instead of camping?. Because I don't plan on staying at hotels since they are really expensive.

Amazing trip video! What was that hot spring you made that right turn to?

How is the biking? It’s cold in the summer It rain often in Iceland.

If fury wasnt such a Gaylord it could of been Fury v Usyk and AJ v Wilder on the same night in December. That night would of gone down in history

So many ads, it’s a shame, I stopped to watch this video after the second one.. too much annoying when I am chilling watching beautiful videos, travelling just watching and suddenly baaam fuc&ing ads !! No way. I just stopped.
