Visiting Iceland with 5 year old boy

[u/yassin6868]

Hello, we are planning on visiting iceland this September and deciding to either bring our 5 year old son with us or just leave him with the grandparents. For those of you who travelled to iceland with kids. Did you find it difficult to do the activities with small kids… is the hiking trails difficult? We are planning on renting a campervan for 10-14 days and stay at campsites to go through the ring circle

Thank you

When my son was 2 we took him to Iceland for 10 days and also rented a campervan. It was a fantastic trip and I can't say there were any moments of regret or second-guessing the trip. Of course you have to be mindful that there's a lot of beaches/sand to walk through, hiking, and you're guaranteed to get wet at some point. The hiking trails are as difficult as you make them - some are very easy and others are treacherous, so it's important to do some research about which specific trails or sites you want to hike on.
