Video: Touring Iceland Along the Ring Road

Ever wonder what it would be like to explore Iceland via its famed Ring Road? This route runs along the entire coast of the country, giving visitors an opportunity to visit some of the more scenic and remote areas that Iceland has to offer. The video below – shot by filmmaker/adventure trailer Connor Callaghan, takes us on a 12-day journey through the country. Things get off to a rocky start when Connor and his girlfriend first struggle with driving a manual transmission and then later start their cook stove on fire, but soon they fall into a natural rhythm and Iceland's enchantments take over. At just about 30 minutes in length, this is a bit of a long video to watch, but it is also a fun travelogue from what looks like a fantastic trip. It is filled with numerous personal moments, wonderful scenery, and great opportunities for adventure. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as it seems Connor enjoyed making it.

Video: The Little Nordics - Life in Miniature

Here's a wonderful little video that is sure to mesmerize and delight. It features a series of timelapse images shot in hyper-realistic fashion that makes everything that is taking place look like it is incredibly small. It is almost as if you're looking into a miniature world of tiny people exploring the globe. Shot in Norway and Iceland, I can assure you however that these are all real photographs of real places and real people. It is a wonderful way to look at the world around us.

Video: Mountain Biking Iceland

We all know Iceland is a fantastic adventure travel destination, but it turns out it has some epic mountain biking trails as well. In this video. Kyle Jameson and friends head to Iceland for some freeriding opportunities, and find plenty of great trails, surrounding by breathtaking scenery, to pedal. I can't think of a better way to explore this country than on the back of a bike, and this five-minute clip is likely to convince you of the same. Sit back and enjoy. Mountain biking doesn't get much better than this.

Video: 10 Days in Iceland

What do you do when you have ten extra days of vacation time that you need to burn? If you're Atle and Ingeborg, the young couple who made this short film, you head off to Iceland in search of adventure. Judging from the looks of things, I'd say they found it in the beautiful landscapes and amazing activities that they encountered there.

Where would you go, and what would you do, with ten extra days?
