Itinerary Question

Hi I’m a solo female traveller planning a 6 day Iceland trip and have a few questions about it:
Day 1- I land at 6:15 am at KEF, I intend snorkeling at Silfra and exploring Reykjavik
Day 2- A guided day hike
Day 3 - Self drive the golden circle - drive to Klaustur in south/south-east Iceland (close to Skaftafell)
Day 4 - A guided glacier hike and the zodiac tour in Jokulsargon
Day 5 - Drive back from Skaftafell (explore Reynisfjara/Vik/plane crash site), spend some time in Reykjavik
Day 6 - Blue lagoon and back to the airport

-I have a few questions about the drive from Gulfoss to Klaustur, is there a possibility of any road closure here? Not sure how frequently this road is used so are there enough gas stations to get me through to Klaustur from Gulfoss?

Or is this a better itinerary for days 3-5:

Day 3 - Golden circle and back to Reykjavik
Day 4 - Explore Reynisfjara/Vik/plane crash site and drive to Klaustur
Day 5 - A guided glacier hike and the zodiac tour in Jokulsargon, drive back to Reykjavik the same day

-Is driving from Jokulsargon after a glacier hike(that ends around 4-4:30) to Reykjavik doable?

-What are the best navigation apps to use while driving in iceland?

This is what I have planned so far, I’m open to suggestions.

Thanks!

I don't know that area too well but I think you need to tell the dates and or time of the year when you are planning to travel. There is a great difference between August and November for example.

I've been only using paper map which came with the rental car. Call me old school but I think they are more handy for planning the route than navigation apps. Veður and Road websites give you idea of the current weather and road conditions.
