Five days in the southern Highlands, from Reykjavík and back. Waterfalls under Hekla on the first day, Landmannalaugar's coloured mountains on the second, Þórsmörk between three glaciers on the third. On the fourth comes my favourite highland drive: Emstruleið, Mælifell and Öldufellsleið down to the sea.

• A timetable for every day — when to leave, how long at each stop, when you arrive
• Tap-to-navigate links and the Google Map
• My notes on every stop, where to sleep and eat, costs and a packing list
• Before the Highlands — the car, the F-roads and how I cross rivers
