DESOLATE Iceland in the southern highlands

Iceland is an amazing place to visit at all times of the year but only in the height of summer can you explore the interior of the island. This adventurous trip will focus on the southern highlands and will bring you to some of the more remote locations in Iceland.

Jeroen Van Nieuwenhove

Jeroen will be joining Nigel on this workshop as a photography guide.

Jeroen Van Nieuwenhove is a Belgian landscape and wildlife photographer. Now a full-blown local, he fell in love with the land of fire and ice in 2012 and eventually moved there in 2016. As an experienced local guide, he developed a great knowledge of the Icelandic Highlands. In 2021, he dedicated 6 months to documenting the most recent eruption in Iceland and even wrote a book about his experiences.
