Emstrur - Botnar Hut

The Iceland Touring Association huts Botnar on river South Emstrua accommodate 60 people (3 huts x 20).  They are equipped with gas stoves, utensils and running cold water. 

During summer, the warden of the huts lives in a separate house.  Shower and WCs are in the fourth house and fee is charged for the use of the shower.  The huts are about half-way on the trail  Just south of the huts is a pedestrian bridge across the aforementioned river.

A short and rewarding walk takes you to the canyons of river Markarfljot and a mountain track allows 4wd-vehicles access to the huts.
