Route 1 or the Ring Road is a main road in Iceland that runs around the island and connects the different parts of the country together. The total length of the road is 1339 km. Although mostly paved, some portions of the road are still the original 1940's country roads, and contain extreme hazards, such as blind bends and blind hills (this is especially true of the section between Borgarnes and Blönduós) and narrow passes. The loop was finished in 1974 when the bridge over Skeišarį river in Southern Iceland was opened. |
