Bergur Vilhjálmsson
Bergur Vilhjálmsson is a dedicated firefighter and paramedic from Reykjavík, Iceland. He is known for his efforts to raise awareness about mental health issues through challenging physical feats. This summer, he plans to walk from Goðafoss to Reykjavík, carrying a 100-kilogram cart, to draw attention to mental health and raise funds for the organization Píeta. Bergur gained recognition last year for completing a 100-kilometer trek with a sled loaded with the same weight, motivated by the positive impact his actions had on others. His project aims to encourage open discussions about mental health, particularly among men, emphasizing that no one should feel alone in their struggles.
