The highlight is not at the crater. The highlight is on the path between Gatklettur and Hverfjall. This path between the trolls is also difficult to navigate.

Hiking

We climbed here from the crater. With sturdy shoes, this should be a matter of course when hiking, and sure-footedness is easily feasible.
