Ævintýri um óþekkt svæði með faglegum leiðsögumönnum sem sýna ykkur leynda staði Íslands
Fjallabak er fullgild leyfisskyld ferðaskrifstofa og meðlimur í SAF, Samtökum ferðaþjónustunnar.
Matthildur Filippusdóttir Patay er framkvæmdastjóri Fjallabaks. Hún hefur tekið við fjölskyldufyrirtækinu sem hún hefur mikla ástríðu fyrir. Fjallabak er öflugt fjölskyldufyrirtæki sem hefur skipulagt gönguferðir og skíðaleiðangra á Íslandi síðan snemma á áttunda áratugnum.
Nafn fyrirtækisins kemur til vegna þess að við höfum skipulagt flestar okkar ferðir á Fjallabaki og á svæðunum í kringum Heklu.
Friðland Fjallabaks er mikið og ótrúlegt landsvæði sem er að mestu leyti „órannsakað“. Aðgengið er ekki mjög auðvelt því náttúran þar ræður ríkjum.
Fjallabak sérhæfir sig í hágæða gönguferðum, bakpokaferðum fyrir litla hópa, fjölskyldur og vini og við getum sérsnítt ferðina ykkar að ykkar óskum og þörfum, allt frá dagsferðum uppí margra daga ferðir. Hvort sem þið viljið ferðast ein og fá trússþjónustu eða ef þið viljið leiðsögumann þá getum við séð um það allt saman fyrir ykkur.
Þar sem við höfum unnið við þetta í næstum 30 ár, vitum við hvað útivera og gönguferðir um fjöll og firði Íslands þýðir. Við höfum öryggi þitt og ánægju í fyrirrúmi.
Okkar litla fjölskyldufyrirtæki passar að fara með ykkur þar sem er ekki fjöldaferðamennska og við förum því á lítt þekkta staði sem við höfum svolítið út af fyrir okkur.
Við leggjum mikla áherslu á að hafa gæðamat í ferðunum okkar og pössum einstaklega vel uppá náttúruna allt í kringum okkur.
Við hlökkum til að sjá ykkur á Fjallabaki í sumar!
Matthildur Filippusdóttir Patay (Matta)

14 september 2018Our group of 8 (4 old guys, two couples) had a wonderful 7 day trek, generally east-west, mostly off trails, in all kinds of weather. The arrangements were thorough and... read more reliable and our guide was knowledgeable and energetic. Our group became friends while walking and cooking, though our guide did most of the work. The cuisine was wonderful, not what we’d expected in huts. Sometimes our group was the only one in a hut and sometimes there were more.
What you get with a Fjallabak trip is the opportunity to get away from the well-travelled routes, local insight with the ability to improvise, and food that was in sharp contrast with anything I’ve experienced backpacking. A good thing too considering the calories we burned walking 10+ miles a day through an extraordinary landscape.

There were 7 of us and he took care that we were safe and sound all the time without loosing the "adventureous" touch 🙂
To sum it up: I can highly recommend going with Fjallabak, a small trekking company who organises its treks beside the beaten paths and treated us as a group of friends and not as some paying clients.
Me and my family miss Iceland already and we will definitely come back for the next trek 🙂 More

Our family of four had a wonderful trek with Fjallabak trekking around Mount Hekla for four days in July this year.
Our guide Yoan was excellent in... read more every possible way. He was considerate, fun and informative throughout the entire journey and make us all feel at ease on our longest family trek to date. In addition his evening cooking skills were the stuff of legends!
We also found all interactions with Fjallabak to be flawless. They were incredibly informative and responsive with our enquiries while first booking the trip. We were also fortunate to meet Philippe and Matta in person during the journey... they are truly lovely family run business and you can tell they are passionate about what they do and providing a personal experience so different to many of the mass tourism options commonly found in Iceland.
We highly recommend this family business for anyone seeking a small group, personal and enjoyable trekking experience.

But a couple of notes of caution - the hiking is not always easy, and a couple f the days are longish - 22 kilometers. Also when we went, the wind was quite severe.

We did the guided "Birds and Fjords"... read more tour, a big circuit of the Westfjords with lots of stops for photos and birds.

La réserve naturelle de Fjallabak est magnifique et notre trek hors des sentiers battus a dépassé toutes nos attentes. L'itinéraire concocté par Fjallabak Trekking n'a fait que croiser l'"autoroute" du... read more Laugavegur, et nous étions quasi seuls sur les sentiers. Les conditions météo étaient loin d'être idéales (trombes d'eau et vents à 80 km/h certains jours), mais l'organisation parfaite a fait passer ces désagréments au second plan.
A l'exception du refuge surpeuplé de Hvanngíl (à l'intersection du trek surfréquenté du Laugavegur), les hébergements étaient très corrects, voire très agréables (le petit refuge cosy de Strútur).
Je lis des commentaires négatifs écrits il y a deux ans sur Fjallabak Trekking. Mes amis et moi avons vécu une expérience diamétralement opposée et très positive. Nous étions pourtant un groupe de niveaux variés, appréciant l'aventure avec un minimum de confort (pas de portage trop lourd, hébergement en dur). Mais si on redoute la pluie et l'imprévu, c'est vrai qu'il vaut mieux éviter de randonner dans les montagnes islandaises.
Compte tenu de ces contraintes, notre guide a toujours fait les bons choix (rythme, itinéraire, sécurité) et son enthousiasme communicatif faisait oublier les conditions difficiles. La souplesse de l'organisation nous a aussi permis de raccourcir une étape un jour de tempête. L'émerveillement face aux paysages, le bonheur d'une soirée ensoleillée et la compagnie bienveillante d'un logisticien-cuisinier hors pair ont fait de ce trek un souvenir inoubliable.

A recommander sans aucune hésitation. Il feront à coup sûr de votre voyage en Islande des vacances inoubliables.

Each day brought a change in the geography and the micro-climate, and each was surprising and beautiful.

I can't think of a better way to experience this amazing island.
