Description
Find your way on hiking routes in Iceland by renting an easy-to-use Garmin GPS map. The rental suits independent travelers planning activities such as trekking and geocaching.
You can pick up your handheld GPS in central Reykjavik on a day and at a time that suits you.
The rental is a Garmin eTrex Touch 25 GPS, made for hiking and geocaching. Take it on day trips or multi-day tours, so you always know where you are going.
Many phones shut down or don't work well when they get too hot or too cold, which is a problem when you are navigating in remote areas.
This GPS is made of tough material and can withstand Icelandic temperatures and weather. It is durable and waterproof, so you can rely on it in any weather, and the screen is easy to read, even in bright sunlight.
The device has a 2.6-inch (6.6-centimeter) touchscreen with an intuitive interface. It has a detailed map of Iceland and comes with a quick start guide. Other features include sun and moon information and a high-sensitivity GPS receiver.
The small device comes with a pouch, so it is easy to pack away when you are not using it. It runs on two standard AA batteries, which are included in the rental, for around 15 hours.
You can easily set an itinerary on the GPS, whether you are planning a multi-day trip in the Icelandic Highlands or shorter hikes in remote areas such as the Eastfjords.
At the end of your trip, drop the GPS back at the store in central Reykjavik.
