It's one of the best locations in Iceland to enjoy solitude and serenity, far from the crowds. At the Westfjord's northwestern tip, the Hornstrandir nature reserve is one of the area's wildest landscapes, abundant in flowering meadows and home to the arctic fox.

Hornstrandir has been devoid of grazing animals for decades, allowing plant life to flourish. The reserve is also closed to motorized traffic and has no permanent human residents. Therefore, it's a true wilderness area, ripe for exploration.

Veidileysufjordur is one of several fjords forming part of the larger Jokulfirdir fjord. The fjords form around the southern coastline of the Hornstrandir nature reserve.

The Jokulfirdir fjord boasts a spectacular setting that will make you feel like you're in a dream. Steep, snow-flecked mountains and secluded coves paint a fairytale-like picture as you cruise the calm waters.
