Description
Travel through the Westfjords on this bus transfer from Brjanslaekur Ferry Port to Isafjordur Town. It suits travelers arriving on the Baldur ferry from Stykkisholmur who want an affordable ride through the region.
The journey begins at Brjanslaekur Ferry Port, a gateway to the Westfjords, where passengers disembark from the Baldur ferry. The ferry departs from the town of Stykkisholmur on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula and reaches Brjanslaekur after two to three hours at sea.
Brjanslaekur is a quiet starting point for your Westfjords trip, surrounded by fjords and wide stretches of wild nature.
Your bus to Isafjordur, the capital of the Westfjords, waits for you here. The bus is comfortable, and its large windows let you enjoy the views on the way.
Before reaching Isafjordur, the bus makes two stops. At each one, you can get off for good or take a short break for sightseeing and photos.
The first stop is Flokalundur, named after Hrafna-Floki, the Viking who gave Iceland its name. Legend has it that he climbed a mountain and saw nothing but snow and ice as far as the eye could see, so he called the country the land of ice, or Iceland.
Here, you can be dropped off or just stretch your legs and enjoy the surroundings.
The journey continues to Dynjandi Waterfall, often called the "Jewel of the Westfjords." It is a series of seven waterfalls, with the main fall dropping 330 feet (100 meters).
The last stop of this transfer is Isafjordur, the largest town in the Westfjords and a center of culture and activity. The town has a lively music scene, local art, and historic architecture.
Whether you are traveling on or staying overnight, the town is a good base for exploring more of the region.
