What to Pack for a Trip to Iceland • Ordinary Traveler

If you’re planning your first trip to Iceland, you’re likely scratching your head as to all of the odds and ends you need to pack.

Packing warm clothes should be no-brainer — as for the rest, we’ve got you covered. Here’s what you won’t be able to live without when heading to Iceland!

Iceland Packing Guide

Base Layers

Multiple pairs of long underwear or leggings and a handful of simple tank tops, t-shirts or long sleeves (depending on the season) are a necessity for any trip to the Nordic north. All of Iceland’s natural wonders begging to be explored will require many consecutive hours outdoors, so you’ll want to ensure you have enough layers to be comfortable.

Bring lots of these layers, not just one or two! If you only bring a couple, you’ll find yourself wearing dirty t-shirts under your clothes for the duration of your trip. Expect to wear one base layer every day, and pack accordingly.
