Solheimasandur Plane Wreck, Vik

this place is really cool. It’s very simple, as it is only a plane crash. But has been there for 50 years and the location with the plane is what makes it really neat. The 45 minute walk each way is absolutely worth it. Most people did not then take the time to walk another 200 feet to the black beach and wash the ocean crash. If I come to Iceland I will walk back to the plane yet again. Great for pictures

We stopped here on an ATV tour and the plane was cool to see, but I wouldn't make a special trip out here for it. There's a lot prettier spots to see on the black sand beaches than a downed plane. I think the walk can be over a half hour each way. Decent overall but see some of the better features Iceland has to offer.

Amazing spot and picture worth it! There is a long walk to get to it if you don't take the shuttle. About 2 miles one way. Wear comfy shoes

Definitely worth the walk! If you don’t want to walk, there’s a bus that will ferry you back and forth during limited daytime hours. We went at night so there was no option. It’s like crossing the moon from the parking area to the wreck, the only colors were the hikers.

If you’re an avgeek and love old planes then this is well worth the visit. There are various videos on YT on this place (mine included). Make sure you have good walking shoes, some water (and snacks) and a rain jacket as it’s about 3hrs round trip from the main car park.
