To stay dry during wet conditions. Waterproof or softshell pants and jacket will protect you from rain and splashes, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable throughout your excursion.

A warm down jacket is an insulated outer layer filled with duck or goose down, providing high warmth with minimal weight. Higher fill power (e.g., 700+) means better insulation. For Iceland, choose a water-resistant jacket with an adjustable hood and cuffs to handle wind and cold. Layer it with a waterproof shell in wet conditions.

Keep your head and hands warm. A woolen or fleece hat will prevent heat loss from your head, while insulated gloves will keep your hands toasty and functional.

Comfortable and suitable for rugged terrain. Ensure your boots are waterproof and offer good ankle support to navigate Iceland’s diverse landscapes with ease.

Shield your eyes from the sun and snow glare. UV protection is crucial, especially when the sun reflects off snow or ice, which can be blinding and harmful to your eyes.
