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!

Our four-day trek with Fjallabak Trekking was wonderful along many dimensions. It will long remain a highlight of our family lore. It was amazing to be essentially alone... read more with the sheep in the vast, exquisite landscape. Each day brought a change in the geography and the micro-climate, and each was surprising and beautiful. Our guide was wonderful; he was a friendly, quiet presence who quickly felt like one of the family. We learned geology, history and anthropology from him. I can't think of a better way to experience this amazing island.

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.

Haven't regret the decision to join the trek with Fjallabak (trek at the doors of Hell South) for a single time. Everything was well organized, the guide and Philippe took... read more great care of the group. And the environment was just truly amazing.

Fabulous, walking a mountain trail in a small group with an excellent and humorous guide, talking English and French simultaneously. Emma really took care, from French-style cooking to correctly applying... read more a plaster. Fresh fish, spicy lamb, spaghetti to get your calories … needed with almost 20 km walking per day, mostly off the beaten tracks in a terrific landscape. We had eight days of sunshine, of course that was not guaranteed. Thanks to Philippe for the great and versatile organisation. Strongly recommended!

Perfect trip for some proper walking and being immersed in amazing landscapes. Fjallabak kept the promise of small group, well organised program, and curated itinerary away from the crowds. Huts... read more were comfortable, with well equipped kitchens allowing variety and high quality of food. Challenge mainly weather driven winds can be very strong making the walking tougher. Everything can be managed with the right gear. Laurent our guide was very experienced, competent, and great at managing the group, making the experience both interesting and fun.

I did a short trek, the Trek at the Doors of Hell in late June with Fjallabak a family run business and it was amazing, we had the sensation of... read more being alone in the incredible nature that Iceland has to offer.
I am looking forward to visiting another region of Iceland with you next year.
Thank you!

Mon premier séjour en Islande remonte à 2004, avec Philippe Patay.
Depuis, je suis revenue sur cette île plusieurs fois, par moi-même ou avec Fjallabak. Pour marcher, pour contempler,... read more pour découvrir les oiseaux.
L’organisation et la qualité des guides de cette agence ont toujours été d’une qualité rare, celle de véritables artisans qui connaissent profondément le pays, qui choisissent savamment les parcours, les assurant avec autant de responsabilité que de chaleur humaine et de créativité.
Été 2019 : « Le Trek des Elfes »
Nouvelles retrouvailles avec Fjallabak. 5ème séjour avec leur agence.
du 7 au 13 juillet 2019
Quel bel itinéraire ! Le Trek des Elfes est magnifique !
Je ne connaissais pas encore ce rivage retiré et isolé du Nord-Est de l’Islande.
J’en ai aimé la diversité des paysages tout le long des marches, en itinérance de fjord en fjord, de refuge en refuge, par-dessus les montagnes.
Un bonheur de chaque instant, pour les yeux, pour tous les sens en éveil.
Loin du bruit, des voitures, de la vie des hommes.
Le temps s’arrête pour une immersion totale dans la nature arctique.
Les chants des oiseaux accompagnent les marches.
Le temps est avec nous, pour une belle variété de lumières et d’éclairages.
Quelques gouttes de pluie, tellement de ciels bleus, avec juste ce qu’il faut de gris, ou de brumes, pour nous laisser surprendre par la magie des contrastes.
Aurélien est un accompagnateur parfait, pour la réussite de notre vie en petit groupe.
Joyeux, sympathique, attentionné et prévenant pour chacun.
Et… si bon cuisinier, ne négligeant aucun détail pour enrichir et varier les saveurs de nos dîners au chaud dans les refuges confortables et de nos pic-nics face aux panoramas sauvages.
Très grande réussite. J'ai adoré ces jours. Je repartirai avec eux !
Merci à toute l'équipe de Fjallabak.

Me and my in law family booked this very special trip to an area which is usually very secluded and not seen by too many tourists.
On our 5... read more day trek we hiked through the most incredible nature we could have ever imagine and we experienced even the outcome of the just recent glacier flood of the majestic Skaftá river.
Our guide Laurent, our driver Palli and our contact at Fjallabak were helpful and knowledgable from the first contact on and especially our trekking guide took good care of the group and knew literally a story of every stone we passed 🙂 . 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 🙂

Le chemin des elfes: parcours avec paysages magnifiques, très riches et diversifiés, cela va des champs pleins de fleurs à la rocaille des sommets, à chaque fjord son paysage et... read more ses caractéristiques...j'ai apprécié aussi les accompagnateurs professionnels et agréables, respectant le rythme de chacun et ayant une très bonne connaissance de l'Islande. Sans parler des repas toujours bien préparés avec des petites attentions pour le groupe. C'est l'avantage d'un organisme à taille humaine que l'on ne peut que recommander pour de prochains séjours en famille, seul ou avec des amis..

Que dire des services de cette sympathique agence ? Tout simplement extra ! Sur la base de l'itinéraire que nous souhaitions effectuer, Matta nous a concocté une série d'hébergements (guest... read more house, B&B) accueillants et sympathiques.
Pour ce second séjour en Islande, nous avons découvert avec émerveillement les fjords de l'Ouest et du Nord-ouest...
Merci à Fjallabak de nous avoir conseillé de passer 2 nuits à Djupavik, au bout du monde !!
L'organisation était impeccable, et nous avons apprécié de pouvoir soumettre notre itinéraire, et qui ait trouvé une parfaite concrétisation grâce à Matta.
Merci pour tout ! AGENCE À RECOMMANDER.... même pour des trekkeuses en herbe ! Plus

This was our second trip with Fjallabak. In a very different part of Iceland, but with the same friendly, expert support and guiding. We did the guided "Birds and Fjords"... read more tour, a big circuit of the Westfjords with lots of stops for photos and birds. Excellent planning and selection of small and sometimes very remote guest houses. Would do it again in a minute. Also recommend Fjallabak for self drive planning. They know this country inside out

We did a 4 day trek with Fjallabak with our family (adult children) and totally loved it. It was really interesting to see Iceland this way and get out in... read more it!. We did not really see anyone else but the hikers in our group for 3 days, until the last day we descended upon Landmannalaugar valley. We loved the other people in our group and our guide Yoan did a nice job leading us through the wilderness around Hekla, feeding us well and being very positive and knowledgeable.

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.

Côté trek, celui des portes de l'enfer est juste magique avec chaque jour un paysage différent, ahurissant, et un niveau de difficulté assez accessible pour tout le monde. Nous étions comme seuls au monde durant 4 jours, et avons retrouvé la civilisation à Landmannalaugar.
N'hésitez plus vous avez trouvé l'organisation qu'il vous faut !!
Merci à Fjallabak

I can’t recommend this company highly enough. Really special people who go the extra mile and well beyond. By best advice is take their advice! It was their suggestion to... read more walk away from the popular routes, and they were so right. We visited Landmannalaugar (sp?) briefly. It is spectacular, but no more than other places we saw. And it was heaving, when we had hardly seen a soul. The other good suggestion was to walk up some hills rather than just go from hut to hut. They weren’t overly high but the views were amazing. We met a number of the staff, albeit some briefly, and they were all great.

Très bon parcours photo en Islande avec une équipe compétente et sympathique autour des refuges de Dalakofi et de Strutur. Philippe Pathé et son équipe se sont dépensés sans... read more compter pour nous assurer un séjour agréable malgré des conditions parfois un peu difficiles (pannes diverse sur les 2 refuges et temps variable). Un grand bravo pour la cuisine ( nous nous sommes régalés) , pour la conduite et les explications sur la région.

Our 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.
