PCjr sidecar posted:Call the rental desk where you are picking up in Iceland and ask them. My non-4x4 contract was no F roads at all; I've heard the same for some 4x4 rentals. Yeah, almost all / all non-4x4 rentals are no F roads. OTOH if your rental agency for a 4x4 doesn't allow any F roads, then it's an abysmal rental agency that you should avoid. I've heard a few other roads (e.g. to Askja) are sometimes forbidden, but I never actually came across that when I checked like 10 different agencies—they all just banned F249 and nothing but F249. I went with Blue / Reykjavik Cars (the same company as far as I can tell? they have the same office, at least) and rented a manual 4x4 Dacia Duster, which was a great car and was less than 1/2 the price of renting the same thing with Hertz / Avis / MajorInternationalCarrier for the same period. E: But yeah, of course look through the fine print of your agency. If you do a search for "F249" or "F 249" you'll probably find the section where they talk about which roads are forbidden.

FAT CURES MUSCLES posted:Ideas for four/five people with 3 nights on the south coast in August? Bonus would be some F roads for 4x4. I'm thinking golden circle one day, Reykjavik another. Travelling with family and one of us cant walk very well so hiking long distances could be out of the question. If you go as far as Jokulsarlon, the F985 is a fun drive to the top of the glacier. Takes about an hour each way and it goes actually to the top of the glacier. Dirt road but it's an easy drive. I'm not sure i'd recommend it if it's cloudy, but it goes a drat long way upThere's a little hut you can stop and get coffee at, and if you want you can continue on a guided tour by superjeep.
