Towering over this charming hamlet is Mt. Kirkjufell, an iconic mountain and a favourite of photography enthusiasts from all over the world.

You will also be visiting the fishing village Arnarstapi at the foot of Mt. Stapafell, a place of ancient folklore, located in a coastal scenery of varied rock formations and steep sea cliffs.

Snæfellsjökull is a 700.000-year old stratovolcano with a glacier cap covering its summit. This mountain was the very location of the entrance to the earth’s hidden core in Jules Verne’s classic novel Journey to the Centre of the Earth.
