By car : You can take your own car to Iceland by ferry or rent a car.  Insurances do not pay for damaged rental cars on F roads (mountain roads) .   There are three main roads leading to Landmannalaugar.   The easiest one is F 208 from the north, from the power stations.   There are no rivers to cross, so a normal car will be enough, but be prepared for some shaking.   You need bigger cars, with 4Wd for the other roads.   The second easiest is F 225 from the west (close to mt. Hekla) and the third easiest is F 208 from the south (between Vík and Kirkjubæjarklaustur).   Inform yourself about the weather because water in the rivers can differ a lot. 

Mountain taxi : You can let experts do the driving and carry the responsibility but for that you have to pay (Mountain Taxi 544 5252, Iceland Excursions 540 1313). "

  From http://www.landmannalaugar.info:
  
  Parasites in the pool
  
  Some years ago parasites have been biting bathers (almost nothing in summer 2005). Late August and September were the worst times (hardly og not noticed in the early summer). Scientists do not agree on how serious the bites can be. Most mean that they are only harmful to birds, but some fear that the parasites also can adapt to the human body (use the neuro system). We are waiting for official researches.
  
  Do anybody know about the current situation?
