Route

1. Stykkishólmur is located by Breiðafjörður Bay on the north of Snæfellsnes peninsula, and is surrounded by wonderful views of the innumberable islands. One of the defining landmarks in Stykkishólmur are the old houses which reside in the old city center and this is reflected in the atmosphere – it sometimes feels like a place from a different time.

3. Olafsvik is a town on the northern side of Snaefellsnes peninsula, close to the magnificent glacier, Snaefellsjokull.

4. Djupalonssandur is a beautiful pebbled beach, with a series of rocks of mysterious form emerging from the ocean. It is one of the few areas that lead down to the sea along this coast with its high dramatic cliffs. Watch out for the famous ghosts roaming the place! The rests of a shipwreck can be seen on the beach. On the beach there are also big stones which people tried to lift and test their strength in the days of the fishing stations: Fully Strong 154 kg, Half-Strong 100 kg, Weakling 54 kg and Bungler 23 kg. Weakling marked the frontier of wimphood, any man who couldn't lift it was deemed unsuitable for a life as a fisherman.

5. Where the surf pounds the beach around the old pier. Sit outside with a blanket to keep you warm and bask in the amazing scenery. Coffee, cakes and waffles with cream and apple pie to die for!

   20 min

6. At the farm Olkelda, near Stadarstadur, in the south of Snaefellsnes, there is a mineral spring with carbonated water. Mineral springs are said to have healing properties, so feel free to take a sip. The farmhouse is named Olkelda which means mineral spring in Icelandic.

About Reykjavik

Reykjavik is de noordelijkste hoofdstad ter wereld, een kleurrijke, compacte kunst- en muziekstad met de vulkanische landschappen van IJsland voor de deur.

De Hallgrímskirkja, met een toren geïnspireerd op basaltzuilen, rijst boven straten met felgekleurde huizen uit. Bij de haven glinstert het concertgebouw Harpa met zijn glazen gevel op het water, en het beeld Sun Voyager kijkt over zee richting de berg Esja. Laugavegur, de belangrijkste winkelstraat, staat vol designwinkels, cafés en bars.

Top-ranked sights in Reykjavik: Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, Harpa.
