In September, I traveled to Iceland and decided to spend a night in this remote hut in the Highlands. It could actually be reached by car, it was a very slow and bumpy ride, though. The next town was good 2-3 hours away. In the distance behind the hut, there was a huge glacier, which descended into a glacial lake.

Here's a drone shot to get another perspective of the remoteness.

You're wondering which perks the hut came with? Well, for starters, the outside bathroom was around 200m away from the hut 😂 You might have guessed it, I did not go to the toilet at night. Also because there are rumors that the hut is haunted, but that's another story.

Otherwise, there was a small but well-equipped kitchen.

And besides bunk beds on the ground floor, there were mattresses on the first floor, on which we slept.

And here's the view from that window.
