I feel so lucky to have been in so many parts of Iceland! I know now the hidden treasures and spots that are worth a detour, a visit or even a contemplation. I'm working in environment protection and I have always been attracted by this vast and unspoilt island and its many birds. I can give you tips for your trips to Iceland, and, of course, some small spots where you will be able to observe the local wildlife! Instagram: @icelandic.frenchies

J'ai la chance d'avoir pu arpenter l'Islande en long en large et en travers... je pense connaître les coins qui méritent un détour, une visite voire une contemplation. Je travaille dans la protection de l'environnement et j'ai toujours été attirée par cette vaste île vierge et préservée et par ses nombreux oiseaux. Je peux vous donner des conseils pour vos voyages en Islande, et, bien sur, sur quelques petits coins pour observer la faune locale ! Instagram : @icelandic.frenchies

Látrabjarg, la falaise aux oiseaux

Látrabjarg (LaO-tra-byarrr) est encore une destination à ne pas rater pour les amoureux des oiseaux. Le Látrabjarg est situé dans le Nord-Ouest de l'Islande, dans la péninsule de Vestfirðir, et sur la région la plus occidentale de l'Europe. Son littoral est constitué de falaises mesurant quatorze kilomètres de longueur et culminant jusqu'à 440 mètres d'altitude. Ces dernières constituent un lieu de vie pour des millions d'oiseaux marins qui y nichent, notamment le petit Pingouin (ou Pingouin torda) dont la population sur ce site représente 40 % de la population mondiale de cette espèce.

Skaftafell, un concentré d'Islande

C'est mon endroit coup de cœur ! J'ai été bénévole deux mois et demi et j'ai parcouru le parc en long, en large et en travers. C'est à mon sens un site à ne pas louper si vous venez en Islande. La diversité des paysages, la proximité du glacier, les activités que l'on peut y pratiquer... sans parler que le parc est accessible toute l'année et à proximité de la route circulaire n°1! Click here to the English version Pourquoi y aller? Skaftafell (prononcez Skaff-ta-feTL) est une zone sauvage située dans le parc national du Vatnajökull au sud-sud-est de l'île, au pied du Vatnajökull, le plu

Ingólfshöfði, paradis des oiseaux

Ingólfshöfði (encore un nom difficile à prononcer) est LA destination à ne pas rater pour les amoureux des oiseaux dans le sud-est de l'Islande, vers Skaftafell. Ingólfshöfði, toponyme islandais signifiant littéralement « la résidence d'Ingólfur », est un cap d'Islande constitué d'un inselberg culminant à 75 mètres d'altitude et ancienne île de l'océan Atlantique. Le site est le lieu supposé du premier accostage d'Ingólfur Arnarson, le premier colon permanent de l'Islande, au IXe siècle. Click here for the English version. Pourquoi y aller?

Summer is Coming | Activities, Excursions and Tips!

I've already written an article about my favourite season in Iceland (winter :) ) and its most famous activities but I must say that summer is really great too. As a bird lover, summer is a dreamy season for birdwatching. Summer means also endless days, hikes, access to remote areas that you cannot reach during winter. Don't think about seeing the Northern Lights during summer but let's be fair, you will easily forget about them as there are so much more to do! In this article, I will share some recommended activities as well as some very worthwhile excursions. This blog is not intended to

Raufarhólshellir : experience an adventure in a lava tunnel !

After many years around Iceland, visiting the most exciting sites, I wanted to go on an ice cave tour (see here)... but it turned out that the tour got cancelled as there was a massive wind storm coming by the east of Iceland! At first, I got disappointed but then I just jumped on the occasion to do something else as I was stucked in Skaftafell : hiking in the park and brave the elements! Iceland is like this : you can plan whatever you want, the weather is always the boss! Cliquez ici pour voir l'article en français. Since I couldn’t reschedule my ice cave tour, I wanted to do something

Either winter is coming or winter is here, tips you need to know

What time of year should you visit Iceland? If you ask me, I will probably answer that it depends on your expectations! My favourite season is winter: I love freezing myself, especially in Iceland. Winter makes all the landscapes white, the days short and the sunlight make them look even more beautiful as the sun lazily rises and sets. You also have the chance to be amazed by stormy skies, which paint the sky with shades of yellow, orange, blue, pink, sometimes all at the same time. The long nights are quite special when you're standing outside in the dark and then suddenly you're surround

Askja, between the moon and mars, floating in space!

Since a long time, I wanted to explore the remote places of the highlands and especially Askja. As many of the sites in the Highlands, Asjka can only be reach by a 4x4 and I must say, after being on the road, that you cannot by the smallest 4x4 you can rent! They are a few rivers to cross and one is quite deep and subject to quick level changes as it's a glacial river. I decided to book a day tour to Askja, as I was in Myvatn on holidays for few days. Myvatn is accessible by the ring road : 6h from Reykjavik, 1h20 from Akureyri, 2h10 from Egillstadir. If you are in the north of Iceland, it's

Kerlingarfjöll, the land of ice and fire in the Highlands

Well, I must admit that when I think of Iceland, I think about ice, glaciers and also volcanoes, steam, geysers... Volcanic activity is what brings me the first time in Iceland, as I remembered the eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull in 2010, that almost killed my holidays :) It's not called the land of ice and fire for nothing. I had the chance to have both ice and fire in a place called Kerlingarfjöll in the Highlands. It's so beautiful.. especially during a sunny day ;) Consultez ici l'article en français What's Kerlingarfjöll? Kerlingarfjöll is an amazing spot in the Highlands. Kerling

Ingólfshöfði, a Puffin Paradise Near Skaftafell !

Ingólfshöfði (a difficult name to pronounce) is the destination not to be missed for bird lovers. Ingólfshöfði, an Icelandic toponym literally meaning "Ingólfur's residence", is a cape of Iceland measuring 75-meter-high and is an ancient island of the Atlantic Ocean. The site is the supposed place of the first berthing of Ingólfur Arnarson, the first permanent settler of Iceland, in the 9th century. Cliquez ici pour voir l'article en français. Why go to Ingólfshöfði? I must admit that I love history but what I love the most is birds: Ingólfshöfði is a wonderful natural reserve where ma
