見どころ
Bolafjall Sky Walk and Syðridalur Mine. This tour offers a mix of natural beauty, history and a touch of adventure in a small or private group. You'll experience Bolafjall sky walk, enjoy the views of steep cliffs and endless North Atlantic Ocean with Hornstrandir Nature Reserve in the far distance. Also, you will have a chance to learn about NATO's monitoring infrastructure located on the mountain. After walking into the sky, we will head for a short hike to explore the old and abandoned lignite mine in Syðridalur. Hiking at a moderate pace to the mines gives us enough time to visit the Ósvör Maritime Museum as well. Syðridalur in Bolungarvík is known for an old lignite mine which is situated in the valley. It was mined from the mine in the years of 1917 until 1921 or while and after the first World War. To get into the mine you almost have to crawl, but once you're in the ceiling gets higher and you can stand upright. Scenic walk up to the mine takes around 25 min on a marked trail.

Syðridalur in Bolungarvík is known for an old lignite mine which is situated in the valley. Lignite was mined from the mine in the years of 1917 until 1921 or while and after the first World War. The reason why the mining was shut down is because coal from Europe became more accessible after the war. To get into the mine you almost have to crawl, but once you're in the ceiling gets higher and you can stand upright. The walk up to the mine takes around 20-25 minutes on a marked trail.

About Ísafjörður
Ísafjörður is the main town of Iceland's Westfjords, a fishing port on a spit beneath steep mountains and a base for wild fjords and Arctic foxes.
Ísafjörður is the largest town in the Westfjords, a remote peninsula in north-west Iceland, and sits on a narrow spit of land in the fjord Skutulsfjörður, with steep mountains rising straight from the water. Old wooden houses with brightly painted roofs cluster around the harbour, and the Westfjords Heritage Museum, in one of the town's oldest buildings, tells the story of the fishing past.
