Typical opening

Highland F-roads typically open between mid-June and mid-July once the snow has melted and rivers drop, and close again in September (or earlier in bad weather). We don't have a dated record for this route yet — rely on the live status above.

Estimates are not a guarantee. Vegagerðin sets each year's opening after inspecting the route; a heavy winter pushes it later. Always confirm the live status before you drive.
