When to visit
Iceland is a fantastic place to visit year-round. The winter months’ long nights are the best time to witness the Northern Lights, whereas long summer days are great for hiking. Snowmelt in the spring makes Iceland’s waterfalls even more spectacular, while autumn is quieter and the first snow’s contrast with the reddening mosses is particularly photogenic.
