When creating the upcoming
Iceland DLC for
Euro Truck Simulator 2, one road immediately stood out as absolutely essential - Route 1, also known as the Ring Road. This main road circles the entire island and serves as the backbone of Iceland’s transport network. For players, it will become the main route for most journeys, whether you are delivering cargo across the country or simply exploring.
Driving along Route 1 offers a chance to experience some of Iceland’s most iconic sights. From the roadside, you can get a glimpse of the spectacular Seljalandsfoss waterfall, pass through the coastal village of Vík, admire the icy beauty of Jökulsárlón lagoon, wind your way through the dramatic Eastern Fjords, and continue past the volcanic landscapes surrounding Lake Mývatn. Countless rivers, lakes, and valleys accompany the journey, ensuring every stretch of the road has something unique to offer. This is just a short list of the cities and landmarks you will encounter along the way!
The Ring Road is not just about scenery, however. With its many bridges and even an undersea tunnel, it showcases Iceland’s infrastructure and the challenges of connecting distant communities across difficult terrain.
While detours and regional roads will certainly play their part, particularly in the south-west, the Ring Road remains the essential artery for travelling longer distances. It is the heart of almost every adventure you will take in Iceland.
This DLC is still in development, and we look forward to sharing more about it in the future. By now, don't forget to support us by
