Initial plan

As usual planning hasnt been underestimated. Thanks to several blogs and mainly Tomik I had enough inputs to prepare ambitious but still reasonable plan, which should be achivable.
Quite soon I realized that August is really the touristic peak as many guest houses sent bank clear emails - sorry we dont have any accomodation. Thanks to this reason we have two nights for which we most likely have to sleep in tent. Plan covers more than 2000km, partly into the inland what can be more or less funny.

Biggest issue was to find accommodation (guest house type) in Myvatn, Skaftafell or Landmannalaugar areas. Altough both areas offer many options simply for high season you have to bookseveral months in advance (not like my 3 months only).

During the planning I came accross the following accommodation options (might be usefull for somebody else):
Myvatn - most of the full for our date or expensive means above 200 euro per night
Vogahraun - full
Dimmuborgir - full
Vogafjos - 220 euro
Elda - full
Hlíd - our destination

Between Myvatn and Askja
Grimsstadir - full
Between Myvatn and Hofn
Fjalladyrd - we plann different path

Skaftafell
Littla Hof - 260 euro
Svinafell - full
Laekjarhus - full
Horgsland - only double room and quite farway
Frost and Fire - our destination

Landmannalaugar
Landmannahellir - full
Landmannalaugar Hut - full
Eldgja - full
Afangar - no answer
Rjupnavellir - our destination
