Udforsk Islands smukke fjorde

Iceland's 109 stunning fjords offer a unique and captivating experience for travelers. These U-shaped inlets, carved out by glacier tongues, are primarily clustered in the East and Westfjords, with a few in the North and near Reykjavik. Fjords are not just geographical features; they are gateways to Iceland's natural wonders.

The best way to explore these Icelandic marvels is through fjord tours. A self-drive tour stands out as the top choice, allowing you to set your own pace and personalize your itinerary while navigating the ring road. This flexibility lets you immerse yourself in the diverse beauty of each fjord, from the inner, mountain-hemmed sea bottoms to the wider, open-mouthed bays.

These fjords, unique to Iceland, are not to be confused with their freshwater counterparts in Norway and New Zealand. The Icelandic fjords are all connected to the ocean, making them saltwater havens. As you journey through these fjords, you'll encounter stunning landscapes, with steep mountains, glaciers, and cascading waterfalls reflecting in the serene waters.

Iceland's fjord tours offer a range of scenery unparalleled by any other destination. While Norway's fjords are adorned with trees, Iceland's barren yet enchanting fjords boast moss-covered hillsides, vibrant grounds, and countless waterfalls. 

Whether you opt for a guided tour or a self-drive adventure, these fjords will immerse you in Iceland's raw and untamed beauty, making your journey an unforgettable exploration of nature's wonders.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål

What is the best fjord tour in Iceland?
One of the best fjord tours in Iceland is this 14-day budget-friendly self-drive vacation around Iceland’s Ring Road with Lake Myvatn and the Westfjords. Experience Iceland in two weeks and visit Iceland’s fjords along with other iconic attractions with this comprehensive and affordable self-drive package.
What is the cheapest fjord tour in Iceland?
The cheapest fjord tour in Iceland is this exciting 2.5-hour whale-watching tour in North Iceland from Hauganes. On this tour in Eyjafjordur fjord, one of the longest fjords in Iceland, you’ll see different whale species aboard an oak boat.
When is the best time to visit Iceland’s fjords on a tour?
The best time to take fjord tours in Iceland is during the summer months from June to August, when the weather is typically milder and the roads are more accessible. During this period, there are long, bright days, giving you plenty of time to explore the fjords’ magnificent landscapes.

If you prefer fewer crowds and would also like the chance to see the northern lights, late winter and early spring from February to April can also be a great time for fjord tours, although conditions can be more challenging.

Fjord tours in summer include this customizable eight-day summer self-drive vacation in Iceland’s Westfjords and the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, this 10-day summer self-drive vacation to Iceland’s remote northwest with Snaefellsnes and the Westfjords, and this guided 11-day photography workshop under the midnight sun in Iceland’s Westfjords.

In winter, you can take this two-day northern lights tour and winter getaway in Iceland’s Westfjords with flights from Reykjavik.
Is it worth taking a fjord tour in Iceland?
Absolutely! It’s well worth taking a fjord tour in Iceland. These tours showcase the country’s exceptional nature and offer a unique perspective on the impressive landscapes and fascinating fjords. It’s a memorable, immersive journey into Iceland’s rugged, untouched wilderness.
What are fjords in Iceland?
Fjords in Iceland are deep, narrow sea inlets surrounded by steep cliffs or mountains. Fjords form when glaciers carve deep valleys as they move toward the sea. When the glaciers retreat, the valleys fill with seawater. The result is a beautiful and often dramatic landscape with calm water and raw nature.
How did Iceland’s fjords form?
During the last Ice Age, enormous glaciers cut into Iceland’s eastern and western coastlines, creating valleys and fjords. Volcanic activity beneath the glaciers built up mountains and ridges, and during warmer periods, lava flowed across the landscape.

As the glaciers melted, the land rose quickly and the upper layers of the ground became lighter. This process helped shape the mountain landscapes we see today in the Eastfjords and the Westfjords.
How many fjords are there in Iceland?
There are 109 fjords in Iceland, spread along the coastline, especially in the Westfjords and the Eastfjords. Each fjord has its own special charm and offers magnificent scenery and plenty of opportunities for adventure.
Which fjord is the most beautiful in Iceland?
Which fjord is the most beautiful in Iceland is, of course, a matter of taste, but one of the fjords most often highlighted for its breathtaking nature is Hvalfjordur (Whale Fjord) just north of Reykjavik. It has impressive cliffs, peaceful waters, and the magnificent waterfall Glymur.

Another fantastic fjord is Faskrudsfjordur in the Eastfjords. It’s known for its charming town and the surrounding mountains.

The Westfjords are also full of impressive fjords. In particular, the waterfall Dynjandi is a must-see, with its large, cascading falls in multiple tiers.

Each of these fjords has its own unique beauty. Ultimately, the “most beautiful” fjord depends on what type of landscape you like best, whether it’s quiet seclusion, dramatic cliffs, or waterfalls.
What is the difference between the Westfjords and the Eastfjords in Iceland?
The Westfjords and the Eastfjords are two beautiful but very different regions in Iceland. The Westfjords are more remote and rugged, with steep cliffs, deep fjords, and a sense of isolation, making the area ideal for adventurers and nature lovers. Roads and driving conditions can be challenging, and fewer people visit, so you get a more untouched experience.

The Eastfjords, on the other hand, are more accessible, with gentle hills, coastal mountains, and cozy fishing villages. The region has a calmer atmosphere and is easier to explore, as visitor infrastructure is generally better.

Both areas are rich in wildlife, including seals and birds, but the Westfjords in Iceland are especially known for their dramatic landscapes, while the Eastfjords offer a more peaceful and colorful beauty.
What are the Westfjords in Iceland?
The Westfjords are an administrative district in Iceland and cover a large peninsula with dozens of mountainous fjords. The Westfjords include Iceland’s northwesternmost point, which faces Greenland’s east coast. Due to the lack of lowland areas, the Westfjords are sparsely populated relative to their size and have only around 7,400 inhabitants.
What are the Eastfjords in Iceland?
The Eastfjords are a large region in East Iceland consisting of a dozen fjords. The area is home to around 15,300 people, and the largest town is Egilsstadir.
Which fjords in Iceland are best for seeing puffins?
Migratory puffins nest in cliff-lined coastal areas, and their habitats aren’t limited to Iceland’s fjords. Great places to see puffins include Latrajbarg cliffs at the westernmost point of the Westfjords, Ingolfshofdi on the South Coast, the islands of Dyrholaey and Vestmannaeyjar (the Westman Islands), as well as Borgarfjordur fjord in the Eastfjords.
Are there fjord tours in Iceland for animal lovers?
Yes, there are. For whale enthusiasts, there’s a whale-watching tour where you can experience these gentle giants in Icelandic waters aboard an eco-friendly oak boat.
You can ride a beautiful Icelandic horse in the morning and go on a fascinating whale-watching tour in the afternoon on this scenic eight-hour day tour with horseback riding and whale watching, with transfers from Reykjavik.

If you’d like to try something different, you can join this three-hour horseback ride in East Iceland and explore the region’s hidden valleys on horseback.
 
Are there fjord tours in Iceland focused on relaxation?
Yes! Iceland offers fjord tours designed for relaxation and tranquility, so you can unwind amid the fjords’ magnificent nature.

Treat yourself to a luxurious hot-springs experience with admission to Hvammsvik Hot Springs near Reykjavik. Relax and recharge while surrounded by nature. Alternatively, you can enjoy a similar geothermal bathing experience in peaceful surroundings by booking admission to the Forest Lagoon in North Iceland.
Why are there no fjords in South Iceland?
The reason there are no fjords in South Iceland is tied to the region’s unique geography. Unlike the Westfjords and the Eastfjords, which were shaped by glaciers carving deep valleys into the landscape, South Iceland has broad, flat outwash plains created by glacial meltwater over thousands of years.

These plains are covered by a lava field, Thjorsarhraun, which stretches all the way to the coast and prevents the sea from forming fjords. As a result, South Iceland’s coastline is smoother and lacks the deep, narrow inlets that characterize fjords.
Why are there so many towns by Icelandic fjords?
There are many towns by Icelandic fjords for a couple of reasons. First, Iceland’s Highlands are too harsh and difficult to live in, so people settle along the coast. Second, fjords are perfect places to build harbors because the mountains and cliffs shelter the area from strong winds and create calm waters.
