What to Pack for Iceland in the Winter?

The winter temperature in Iceland can vary between 14°F to 50°F (-10°C to 10°C), depending on the area. However, the winds can be extremely chilling.

winter-iceland

You will need good insulation, and should cover yourself from head to toe with lots of thermal layers.

Here’s what to pack for Iceland in the winter:

  • Winter Jacket/Parka: insulated, waterproof, windproof, and warm, a ski jacket can work with layers.
  • Base Layers: 2-3 pairs of moisture-wicking merino or synthetic underwear
  • Mid-Layers: wool or fleece sweaters, several for insulation; wool offers superior warmth
  • Winter Pants: warm, waterproof, essential for staying dry in snow, slush, or rain
  • Socks: woolen, thick, moisture-resistant, pack enough for double layering if needed
  • Boots: waterproof, insulated, sturdy, with good ankle support for warmth and traction

What to Pack for Iceland in the Summer?

Though warmer, summer still brings wind and rain… so you need to wind and rainproof everything. The average temperature stays between 52°F to 59°F (11°C to 15°C).

So you can ditch your thermal layers for something lighter.

Here’s what to pack for Iceland in the summer:

  • Shell Jacket: lightweight, waterproof, windproof and breathable for rain or mist
  • Pants/Hiking Pants: quick-dry, comfortable, flexible synthetic material
  • Shirts: t-shirts and long-sleeved, moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool base layers

  • Hiking Sandals: for warm days, river crossings, or hot springs
  • Light Hat: for sun protection
  • Swimsuit: for geothermal pools

What to Pack for Shoulder Seasons?

The average temperature in Spring and Autumn stays between 32°F to 50°F (0°C to 10°C).

iceland-in-shoulder-season-1

So, your packing list needs to have a careful blend of winter and summer essentials. But it should lean more towards winter gear due to approaching cold, icy roads, and frequent rainfall.

Here’s what to pack for Iceland in the shoulder seasons:

  • Jacket: waterproof, crucial for rain, fits layers underneath
  • Base Layers: thermal leggings, essential for warmth on colder days
  • Wool/Fleece Sweaters: multiple mid-layers for adaptable warmth
  • Hiking Shoes/Boots: waterproof, non-negotiable for wet conditions and varied terrain
  • Warm Hats, Gloves, Scarf/Buff: for protection against wind and dropping temperatures

How to Pack for Unpredictable Weather?

Icelanders often say, “there’s no bad weather, just bad clothing.” Well, this can’t be more true. Despite all its unpredictability, you can easily tackle Icelandic weather with the right packing strategy.

Here is what to keep in mind.

Layering Is Key

Layering is ESSENTIAL to any Iceland packing list.

With years of experience as tour guides, we can tell you that dressing in layers is the best way to deal with Iceland’s unpredictable weather. It’s because layering allows you to adjust your outfit on the go.

We recommend to always wear three layers.

wearing-layers-iceland

Start with a moisture-wicking base layer, like merino wool or synthetic thermal wear. Then an insulating mid-layer, like a fleece or down jacket to trap heat. And finally a waterproof, windproof shell to protect you from the elements.

Avoid cotton and jeans as they absorb moisture and dry slowly. Opt for quick-dry, moisture-wicking materials instead.

Waterproof Everything

Iceland experiences a lot of rainfall throughout the year, so waterproofing is absolutely essential.

Your outerwear (both top and bottom), headwear, footwear, handwear, backpack – everything needs to be waterproof.

waterproof-clothing

You also need to pack dry bags or ziplocks to protect your electronics, documents, and other essentials.

Also, when we say waterproof, we mean waterproof – and not water-resistant.

Choose the Right Footwear

As we have already mentioned above, you need sturdy and waterproof boots with good grip to walk on icy surfaces. 

proper-hiking-boots

This applies in all seasons except summer. But you’ll be better off with such boots even in summer if you plan to hike or explore remote areas and glaciers.

Try to avoid using sneakers or regular shoes.

Don’t Underestimate the Wind

The wind in Iceland can be bone-chilling. It can make the weather significantly cooler than what you’d expect from the temperature forecast. 

cold-icelandic-weather

Make sure to pack a hat/beanie, gloves, and a neck gaiter/buff to shield exposed skin. And remember to pack windproof shell as well!

Adapt to Changing Weather

We strongly recommend to regularly check for weather forecasts on vedur.is. It’s crucial to stay one step ahead of the Icelandic weather. 

You can also check our detailed weather guide that breaks down everything about weather patterns in Iceland.

Packing Mistakes to Avoid

Working here in Iceland as guides, we often notice that travelers tend to either underpack or overpack. You need to avoid both.

Here are some packing mistakes that are good to avoid.

Packing Mistake Why It’s a Problem / What to Do Instead?
Not Packing Layers
Iceland’s weather changes rapidly. Pack base, insulating, and waterproof outer layers instead of heavy coats.
Bringing Only Jeans or Cotton Clothing
Cotton absorbs moisture and dries slowly. Opt for quick-dry, moisture-wicking materials.
Ignoring Waterproof Gear
Rain is frequent year-round. Always pack a waterproof jacket, pants, and backpack cover.
Wearing Inappropriate Footwear
Sneakers or fashion boots offer poor grip and no water protection. Wear waterproof hiking boots.
Overpacking Bulky Items
Space is limited in campervans/cars. Pack compact, versatile items instead of bulky extras.
Skipping Swimwear
You’ll want to enjoy hot springs and geothermal pools. So, do bring a swimsuit.
No Sleep Mask or Earplugs
In summer, 24-hour daylight can affect sleep. In winter, winds can be loud. Pack both for better rest.
Forgetting Chargers & Power Adapters
Iceland uses Type F sockets (European standard). Bring correct adapters and power banks.
Not Bringing Snacks or Reusable Bottles
Rural areas have limited food options. Pack snacks and a refillable water bottle (tap water is clean).
Underestimating Sun or Wind Exposure
Pack sunglasses, lip balm with SPF, and sunscreen—even on cloudy days. Windburn and UV can be intense.
No Emergency Items for Outdoors
Always carry a first-aid kit, whistle, flashlight/headlamp, and emergency blanket if hiking or road-tripping.
Leaving Out Bug Spray (Summer)
Midges can be annoying in summer near lakes and wetlands. Bring bug repellent, especially for July-August.
No Dry or Ziplock Bags
Due to frequent rain, you must bring dry bags or ziplock bags to protect your electronics and documents.
Paying for Water
There’s no need to buy bottled water; you can simply refill your reusable bottle.

Summary

If you want to have a good time in Iceland, you need to pack right. Iceland is known for unpredictable weather and rapid shifts between sun, rain, and strong winds.You need to come prepared to face all four seasons in a single day.

In addition to carrying year-round essentials, you need to tailor your Iceland packing list based on the season and the activities you plan to do.You should dress in layers, cover yourself from head to toe, and waterproof everything.

Avoid the mistakes that we have mentioned, frequently check weather forecasts, and keep adapting to the changing weather conditions. Remember, “there is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing.”
