Rebecca

Meine Islandbegeisterung begann mit meiner Reitkarriere irgendwann im Alter von 12 Jahren... die besagte „Karriere" endete eher abrupt, die Liebe zu Island führte mich jedoch nach meinem Abi zum ersten Mal in den hohen Norden. Ich kam immer wieder zurück und erstellte schließlich meine Bachelor-Arbeit auf der Insel, ein fotobasiertes Magazin über Design und Architektur Islands. Nach meinem Bachelor-Abschluss in Fotografie von der FH Dortmund wagte ich dann den Schritt und machte Reykjavík zu meiner Heimat. Ich liebe die raue Natur und die Atlantikküste und gebe euch gerne Tipps zu den besten F

SomethingElfs

Mieszkam na Islandii od kilku lat i staram się zrozumieć nie tylko ten kraj, ale również jego mieszkańców. Od jakiegoś czasu Islandia jest popularnym kierunkiem, który przyciąga ludzi z całego świata. Mamy tutaj sporą grupę emigrantów z Polski, ludzi niebywale kreatywnych, zmieniających rzeczywistość, ciężko pracujących, którzy idealnie wpasowali się w islandzki krajobraz. Stanowią ważny element społeczeństwa, a nie tylko “element” jak to często bywa określane w mediach:) Co jakiś czas będę pisać o kraju, który przyjął mnie nie tylko piękną naturą, wolnością czy pozwolił dowiedzieć się jak wie

Xiaochen

很小的时候就向往冰岛，却也没想到能在这里生活。第一次来冰岛是2010年从美国毕业，而后辗转到新加坡工作，期间多次回到冰岛旅行，就这样在赤道和极圈之间往返，直到14年生活在这里。很多朋友说我是学霸，这股认真劲儿也用在了对冰岛的热爱上，从旅行到文化，通过阅读和实际体验，有很多心得体会，也主要通过文章的方式和大家分享了出来。在这里，写一些攻略游记帮助大家更好的计划冰岛行。如果你有什么问题，欢迎发信息留言给我。注：我不是导游，只提供信息。如果是关于行程的具体策划安排，请联系Guide to Iceland的专业中文客服团队。微信只家人用，所以请不要问微信号码，见谅。但是不论是关于在冰岛自驾、冰岛旅行团，还是文化方面，我会尽自己所能在这里帮助你解答。祝冰岛旅途愉快！

生活在冰岛的文学艺术迷弟，希望把我眼中的冰岛最优秀之处介绍给中国朋友们。这里的雨水与雾气，这里的荒凉与热闹都无比独特，但或许也同世上其他地方别无二致。我在这个小岛上书写自己的故事，期望能将这种幽微传递出去，去引起更多的故事。欢迎向我咨询有关冰岛旅行的各种问题，很愿意与大家分享我自己的经验，更希望听到来自你们的故事。

I think of myself as a landscape photographer, because that´s what I enjoy the most. I love everything about photography, however capturing and composing shots of nature is my pure passion. Living in Iceland has changed my perception of nature.I fell in love with the rugged and pristine nature of Iceland and had no other choice but to pick up a camera and hold on to these feelings. My biggest joy is to be ''out there'' in the wilderness. To look for paths that n

Estoy aquí por nueve meses y cada día que pasa estoy más enamorada de este país. Soy una persona a la que no le gusta para nada el frío ni la oscuridad. Pero también me considero aventurera y quería desafiarme en este sentido. Vine a Islandia por ver, tanto fotografías como vídeos en internet, y la verdad que no me han defraudado para nada. Es más, las fotografías se quedan cortas cuando ves la realidad. Si quieres saber cosas sobre este bonito p

Steffi ist die eine Hälfte. Ich die Andere. Zusammen haben wir die Seite tónlist.de ins Leben gerufen. Auf tónlist.de und in unserem Blog hier auf Guide to Iceland dreht sich alles um ein Thema: Musik aus Island! Warum wir das machen? Islands Musikszene ist unglaublich reich an phantastischen Bands aller Stilrichtungen. Aber leider sind diese Bands außerhalb des Landes, natürlich von einigen großartigen Ausnahmen abgesehen, oft nur sehr wenigen bekannt. Dabei gibt es so viel Wunderbares, Einzigartiges, Abwechslungsreiches und manchmal auch Skurriles zu entdecken! Und zwar in einer Menge, die s

Oliver

Ich lebe und arbeite auf Island nun seit über 3 Jahren. Bereits viel früher habe ich mir ein Virus eingefangen, das sogenannte Islandvirus. Alles begann im Jahr 2009, als ich direkt nach dem Studium ein Auslandspraktikum in Island absolviert habe. In dieser Zeit hatte ich viel Gelegenheit, Land und Leute kennen zu lernen… und um mich gründlich mit besagtem Virus zu infizieren. In den kommenden Jahren bin ich immer wieder zum Urlaub machen und Reisen hergekommen. Als irgendwann auch das nicht mehr ausreichte, um meine Symptome zu lindern, wurden die Koffer gepackt, um nach Reykjavík umzuziehen.

Helena

Born and raised in Rvk city but I should know a thing or two about Iceland now since I helped with the founding of Guide to Iceland which has been awesome! I love to get my adrenaline going, that’s why I practised gymnastics for most of my life but nowadays I go skiing/snowboarding and get my kick out of the slopes, tivolis, waterparks, snowmobiles and stuff like that. But I also know how to relax and trust me there are also plenty of ways to do that here. So if there’s anything you want to know just ask me and I’ll try to help you out the best way I can :)

Donna

It was Harpa Concert Hall in Reykjavík that first attracted me to Iceland in 2015. I had spent fifteen years detailing high rise, glass façade buildings as an architectural technician but none that I worked on were as superb as Harpa. The more I studied Harpa, the more I appreciated it. And I also became intrigued with Iceland and Icelanders. So I researched (a lot) and soon I was being commissioned around Cambridge to talk about Iceland and Icelanders- about the sagas, Icelandic sheep and knitting, the nation's keen interest in outdoor bathing and about how a building like Harpa can inspire

A local from Reykjavík, Iceland. I´ve been all over the place and if you want a good trip while you are in Iceland drop me a line - I can hook you up and take you wherever you want to go, no worries. The only thing to worry about in Iceland is the weather. But I know god, well not exactly – I know a guy who knows god and speaks to him frequently, (so I am the one who might hook you up with good conditions). Also, the Weathergod himself lives in Iceland, he is called Ingó – we can give him a call, meet up and sing a song or two.

Currently I am a student at the University of Iceland and research the impact of tourism on protected areas.

As well as look at the other aspects of sustainable tourism management with regards to local communities and protected area management. Topics related to this study are equity in tourism management, governance networks, and public policies about protected areas. Of particular interest is the importance of tour guides for protected area managmenet. I fin

Chasing Waterfalls in Iceland

Iceland is spectacular in so many ways and Icelandic nature is quite unique with its vast landscape, volcanic activity, geothermal areas, glacier lagoons and sceneries, black sand beaches and spectacular mountain ridges. The country's most recognizable series of attractions though are maybe the endless amount of waterfalls making Iceland quite unique. Once I heard the number 10.000. I'm not sure about this number but I sure know that they are in abundance and wherever you go you will find a waterfall so chasing them is easy.

Sænautasel Turf House in the Highlands of Iceland

On my search for turf houses around Iceland I visited Sænautasel turf house on Jökuldalsheiði heath in the highlands of Iceland. It is in my opinion an extremely cute turf house :) Sænautasel dates back to 1843 and for 95 years people lived in this beautiful turf house - until 1943 when the last people moved out. From 1840 until 1862 sixteen turf houses were built on the heath. Now only Sænautasel is remaining. Snænautasel is one of the homes, which had to b

The dynamic plant Lupin

People have been asking me where to find lupines in Iceland. If you like them you should be able to find them easily in Iceland in summer. They are in bloom and visible almost wherever you drive around the country, very often along roads and lakes. Looking at those purple fields sometimes reminds of a beautiful lavender field and the lupines sure make a beautiful and a vibrant scene wherever you go this time of year. In Iceland we mostly have the purple species but lupines come in several colours; purple, blue, pink, red, yellow and white. The lupine is one of the tal

Secret waterfall on the South Coast

Discover the waterfall Gljúfrabúi The great thing about travelling around Iceland are all the different and unique spots and areas you can discover when driving around. You don't need to go far from the city to explore and enjoy amazing and beautiful places. Iceland is known for its large number of waterfalls and even if we have countless falls they are all very unique and differ from each other. I love to discover new waterfalls because it's one of my favourite subject to shoot. Not so long ago I discovered this magical hidden gem on the south co

Midnight Sun Season in Kirkjufell

The best time to capture the sunset at Kirkjufell mountain would be from the beginning of july and until the end of august. The scenery can be quite amazing as the sun sets into the ocean. See this article for more information about the Midnight sun in Iceland. This is taken from the harbour in Grundarfjörður on 29. june 2013. In Grundarfjörður the sun disappears in november and the residents of Grundarfjörður can not see it again until the beginning of february. Often they celebrate this by making pancakes when they get the glimpse of the sun above the mountai

My farm Kirkjuból is located in the northwest corner of Iceland, namely in a region known as the Westfjords. There are two farmhouses on Kirkjuból, and my next door neighbours are my parents. For generation my family has lived here, working either as fishermen or farmers (or bit of both). My parents raise sheep, and as such continue my family heritage of living of t

The Unpredictable Winter Weather in Iceland

Don't give in even if the weather isn't playing perfectly along Photographers coming to Iceland are often hoping to capture that perfect scene in perfect light. Those who are here on shorter trips often only dedicate one or two days to photography. If the weather isn’t cooperating don’t cave in! Those gloomy days often present the opportunity to get great images for those who dare out! This is especially applicable during the winter months. The weather can be ever changing and in many cases you could be heading out in a blizzard and still through the course of the

Puffins in Iceland

Did you know that Atlantic puffins spend most of their lives at sea, but return to land to form breeding colonies during spring and summer? Iceland is one of those colonies because in spring time they come over here for nesting and Iceland is the breeding home for about 60 percent of the world's Atlantic puffins. Puffins can be seen in Iceland from early April until September each year. There are more than one puffin species but the one that breeds in Iceland is the so called Atlantic Puffin. What makes them special is the penguin like colour with a very colo

Geothermal Areas - Beautiful, Steamy Smelly Spots

Do you also like the smell in the geothermal areas of Iceland ? As you know Iceland is known for its geothermal activity. I guess most of us who live here are used to all this but I have the feeling that travelers do not agree with us at least not about liking the smell. If you wanna experience such geothermal spots we have some very close to Reykjavík city for example in the Krísuvík area and the Grindavík area on the Reykjanes peninsula. Seltún Seltún in the Krísuvík area, very close to Kleifarva

Winter is gone, summer is here!

As winter slowly resides and releases its stronghold on Iceland I thought I’d share with you some pictures of winter in Iceland. This picture was taken on a tour which I got here through Guide to Iceland that was fairly long, 9 days, and where my group really got to know what Iceland is made of during the wintertime. For me personally I’m very happy if I get one good image a day in tour like this. Not necessarily a great image, just a good one. If we put that in to perspective it’s actually quite an achievement to maintain that. The best light as most photographers kn

Mighty Mother Nature and her Little Quirks

You want to know the reason umbrellas don’t work in Iceland? Because most rainfall is horizontal. There is much truth to this little joke. There will be some wind and rain, sleet or snow during your visit. If not, you could always try to get a refund. One thing for sure though, it’s always a good conversation topic. Learning about weather is a large part of any pilot’s training. Knowledge comes both in academic and practical forms, sometimes in the form of hair-raising scenarios for the novice, after which, a change of underwear might be appropriate. But with time, those sit

Is Iceland really a photographer's paradise?

''It´s a photographers paradise''. You might have heard this before about Iceland. Well, I certainly have. But is it really? And if it is, what exactly is it that people are referring to, when they say that there is no place better to take a landscape photo than here, in Iceland. One thing is sure though. No way you can say that Iceland is undiscovered by photographers. Certainly, not in the last few years. Amount of photo tours and workshops have been rapidly increasing and there's a stream of amateur and professional photographers coming in al

Walking inside a ''beautiful nothing''

Kálfafellsdalur is a long glacier valley located south east of Vatnajökull. The valley is scarred with streams collectively called Miðvötn or Landkvísl and at the very end of the valley you can find steep glacier tongue called Brókarjökull (Breeches glacier). This is another place, where you can not find any signs and is rather difficult to hike in. However it´s a perfect place to disconnect from the outer world and marvel the ''beautiful nothingness'' of Icelandic nature. The valley is easily spotted from the ring road. The entr

Best Places to Shoot the Northern lights in West Iceland

I live in the West part of Iceland, close to the nature and close to some great location for shooting northern lights. In this post i´m going to tell and show you a few good places to visit if you want to shoot the northern lights in this part of Iceland. Before you go out to shoot the northern lights it is important to be well dressed because you will need to stay out in the cold for some time and usually you don't have the opportunity move around very much. Besides all photographic gear it is also important to take with you a head light. That is importa

Northern lights visible again, but where to go?

Finally they are visible again, this wonder of the sky, I am talking about the northern lights, also known as the Aurora Borealis. People often ask me where to go to see the lights. My answer is "out of the light pollution", but you dont have to go very far away from the light pollution as these pictures show. The two main things to check before heading out for an aurora hunt are the clouds (they can tend to get in the way of a good shot) and the activity of the lights (aim for a pretty high activity for better visibility). The northern lights are only visible during the d

Attractions by Skaftafell Nature Reserve

Skaftafell National Park was established in 1967 but as from 2008 it became a part of the larger Vatnajokull National Park. The size of the Vatnajokull National Park including Skaftafell is around 14.200 km2 making it Europe's second largest National Park after Yugyd Va in Russia. See also: National Parks in Iceland See also: Skaftafell tours When travelling around Iceland this part of the country should not be left out because there are breathtaking sceneries and vistas wherever you go and great opportunities in terms of photogra

Vatnsnes peninsula in North Iceland

Vatnsnes is a peninsula in the north west part of Iceland, is a place of great natural beauty. Vatnsnes is jutting into Húnaflói in northern Iceland. It is surrounded by waters of Miðfjörður fjord on the west and Húnafjörður on the east. It is home to one of the largest seal colonies in Iceland. The peninsula is also a very interesting place for photographers, with beautiful landscape, nature and wildlife. Here are some of the best attractions by Vatnsnes peninsula: Hamarsrétt is a sheep and horse pen close to the sea shore.

The beautiful midnight sun in Iceland

The sun sure knows how to put on a spectacle in Iceland! Last night the sunset/sunrise was incredibly beautiful. I went out to see a movie last night at 10pm. I went to see the Icelandic film Hrútar - or 'Rams' in English, a very Icelandic film about two old brothers that don't speak to each other and who love their sheep. The movie got an award at Cannes Film Festival recently - Un Certain Regard award - and I must say that I really enjoyed it! It's very funny and typically Icelandic, I think it's a very interesting film for foreigners to see! It's shown every day at Háskólabíó cinema at 5

Aurora explosion

On the evening of 17th of March 2015 the most awesome northern lights show that I have ever witnessed took place. Shooting the aurora is a bit challenging but also very rewarding. On that cold night my friend and I drove just outside of my home town Grundarfjörður to shoot some aurora as the forecast was very promising to say the least. As we reached our first stop the northern lights were everywhere. It did not matter which direction we faced, the sky was filled with light in various colours. Green, red, purple, blue... It was so spectacular. This went on a

Off the beaten path

Among the things Iceland has to offer are glorious landscapes that will leave you in awe. The most popular places aren´t popular just because, they are popular for a reason and the reason is great accessibility and of course unbeatable beauty. But from the photographers point of view, photographing places crowded with people in broad harsh daylight is not always first choice. Iceland has to offer many gorgeous places off the beaten path but still easily accessible for the landscape photographer. Many gems are yet to be discovered, and when we find them we would also like to

Þingvellir National Park - Where You Walk Between Two Continents

Why is it the only UNESCO World Heritage Site on the Icelandic mainland? How did it form? Why is it so popular? Read ahead for all you need to know about Þingvellir National Park. Most visitors to Iceland will, at some point, take the Golden Circle, the most popular tourist route in the country. Images from its three destinations adorn postcards and websites, to the extent that many know what to expect from the tour before they even arrive. The iconic

The Milky Way in Iceland

Shooting the Milky Way in Iceland From September when the nights get dark you can look for the Milky Way galaxy and try to capture it with your camera. Photographing the milky way is a good option when the northern lights are not visual or very weak. You need to have a dark night, no moon, clear sky and good distance from all light pollution from farms, town or cities. Usually my setting on the camera are for 30sec, f/2.8 and the lens as wide as possible and the ISO from 6400 till 12800. This picture was shoot in September 2015 in Borgarfjordur with the old and graceful bridge ov

Essential gear for winter photography

The nights are getting darker and the inevitable is happening! Summer will soon start to fade and give into the the fall which happens to be one of my favorite seasons as a photographer. The coulours and mood it brings always bring a smile to my face. Soon there after winter will reign. As working photo guide I often get asked by photographers what gear to bring to maximize their chances for good photographs. While there might be some gear that gives you slight advantages over others it won’t make or break your trip. However I’m going to throw a list together of things that

The remote island Flatey

Have you ever visited some of the islands around Iceland? I recommend you do and there are several beautiful islands possible to visit. One of them is Flatey island, located in Breidafjordur bay on the northwestern part of Iceland. The island is about two kilometers long and one kilometer wide and is quite flat almost without any hills, so therefore the name 'Flatey', meaning "flat island". Flatey is the largest island among a cluster of about forty other small islands in the area. If you want to go to Flatey you need to take the f

Landmannalaugar Tour

A few years back my mother and I were a part of a Landmannalaugar sightseeing tour and it was - to say the least - amazing! Landmannalaugar is one place I can definitely recommend seeing if you're headed to Iceland and want to experience the amazing landscape and natural treasures our country has to offer. Here are a few facts about the area: The name comes from men from an area called Landmannasveit. They found the springs and story goes that they rested there while herding sheep. Not sure how accurate the story is but it makes sense doesn't it? It's a geothermal

Elliðaárdalur - A hidden gem in Reykjavík

In the middle of Reykjavík city there is a hidden nature gem called Elliðaárdalur valley, a peaceful recreation area that not many travellers know about or visit. If you are staying in Reykjavík and you have some extra time I totally recommend a visit to this oasis of the outskirt of the city. It's easy to reach from Reykjavík and you can even take the bus. You could even combine it with a trip to the historical museum Árbæjarsafn located not far away. I wrote about it before in Top 10 tips for photography in Reykj

Volcanic eruption at Holuhraun

On august 29. volcanic eruption started at Holuhraun on the Icelandic highland between Askja and Bárðarbunga. As almost every photographer living in Iceland was dying to get to the scene the Civil protection in Iceland restricted all access to the area with the exception of scientist and media wich were allowed access at their own risk. As I was working for the newspaper Skessuhorn me and my fellow reporter planned a trip. We got permission on tuesday 2. september. We packed our gear and drove north with haste. We were at Mývatn around midnight and it

What is the weather like in Iceland ?

How is the weather in Iceland ? When is the best weather or when is the best time to visit ? These are questions I frequently get from travelers interested in Iceland. To be honest with you, living in Iceland is tricky and to answer these questions is almost impossible to be honest. Iceland is a land of ice and fire (literally) and the weather can change very rapidly. Our island is located just south of the Arctic circle and temperature is cool in the summer and almost mild in winter. If you don´t believe me this is what the Icelandic met of

It's off to the West Fjords

Well as the Germans say, "tomorrow it is so far" - meaning it the time has come for Yours Truly to take off on a road trip to the wonderful West Fjords to drop off books and generally have a marvellous time. If you have not yet explored the West Fjords you are missing out on an incredible experience. They are the most sparsely populated area in Iceland (the population has drifted southward for various reasons, mostly economic - more on that later, perhaps) and also the area with the most imposing mountains and dramatic landscapes. Geologically they are also the oldest part of

アイスランド人の夏の過ごし方といえば、キャンプをするかコテージに泊まるというのが定番です。私もそれにならってアイスランド北部3泊の旅でコテージを利用しました。アイスランドではサマーハウス、と言われている通り、もともとアイスランド人たちはコテージで夏を過ごすのが大好きです。特に何をするわけでもなく、何日もコテージに泊まりバーベキューや読書、ハイキングなどを楽しみます。かつて海外旅行が難しかった時代、アイスランドの夏を過ごすのにはキャンプやコテージが定番でした。個人所有の｢別荘｣も多いほか、レンタルできるコテージも沢山あります。もちろん、海外からの旅行者の皆様も泊まれます。私は今回、Bungaloを利用して予約。簡単に検索、地図からロケーション検索もできるので助かりました。ブロンドゥオゥスのコテージこちらは小さなコテージ。お隣さんともすぐ近くなのでプライベート感はありませんでしたが、散歩コースやスーパー、カフェなどが徒歩圏内で便利です。フロインフォッサルの滝など寄り道をしてきたのでレイキャビク出発から約6時間後の到着、ちょうどよい距離です。今回泊まったところは、キャンプ場も併設しており、キャンプをしたい友達とも一緒に泊まれます。BBQグリルも貸し出しているので夕食はハンバーガーになりました。ブランダ川の両端に町が広がっていて、コテージやキャンプ場はこの写真の

冰島聚焦：北部之都,Akureyri 阿克雷里

無論你是打算在冰島自由行參團還是自駕遊，只要你想要環島，就必定會經過這個北部之都--阿克雷里, Akureyri。作為北部最大的城市，冰島北部的首府，是其中一個來到北部遊客們最愛選擇的歇腳地。除了住宿、餐廳有比較多的選擇之外，大部分的北部旅行團都會從阿克雷里(Akureyri)出發，前往周邊參與各種的活動。這次就要來為大家好好介紹一下這個冰島北部的大城市有什麼玩、什麼季節去可以參加什麼特色行程、衣服應該怎麼穿和附近周圍都有什麼景點。這篇或許將會是你最全的冰島阿克雷里旅遊指南。相關連結《史上最詳盡冰島旅遊攻略：終極懶人包》冰島本地租車價格對比阿克雷里旅行團阿克雷里Akureyri Akureyri 雖然只有一萬八千多人口，但是已經是繼首都雷克雅維克之外最大的城市了，也有冰島北部之都之稱。阿克雷里是一個重要的港口以及捕魚中心，從公元9年開始才漸漸有人居住，直至1786年才獲得城市憲章(municipal charter)，正式成為一個城市。它位於冰島最長的峽灣Eyjafjördur 的盡頭，被約1500 m 長的山脈圍繞，所以在阿克雷里的周圍都可以看到延綿不絕的山景。北極圈位於Akureyri 以北60 km 的地方，但是並沒有這樣而令阿克雷里變得非常寒冷，這裡的氣溫反而比較溫和，雖然平均溫度比雷克雅維克稍低，但是夏季最高溫度偶爾可以達到2

Islandia, Wyspy Owcze, Grenlandia

No i stało się. Tania linia lotnicza z Polski co kilka dni wrzuca nową promocję biletów do Keflaviku, które kosztują tyle ile dwa zestawy w islandzkim KFC. Z jednej strony to bardzo cieszy - w końcu wyspa stała się dostępna dla (prawie) wszystkich. Z drugiej mam wrażenie, że tym samym znika powoli islandzka magia, poczucie, że człowiek dotarł do surowego, dzikiego miejsca, nieskażonego ludzką rękę. To już przeszłość. Bardzo niewiele miejsc w tym momencie nie jest eksploatowanych, i naprawdę w niewielu punktach na Islandii możesz poczuć się jak “człowiek na końcu świ

冰島旅遊的十個小地雷｜旅遊誤區大公開

自駕遊冰島：什麼季節應該租什麼車？

冰島聚焦：觀鯨小鎮胡薩維克, Husavik

冰島北部的Husavik 小鎮最為人知的名字應該是「觀鯨小鎮」。在這個歐洲的「賞鯨之都」必做的事情，大家應該閉上眼睛都知道是觀鯨了。但是自駕遊怎麼去Husavik 你知道嗎？最佳的觀鯨季節你知道嗎？夏季、冬季應該怎麼穿去北部你又答不答得出來？Husavik本身除了觀鯨以外還有什麼好玩的你又知道嗎？這篇就來為大家解答上述所有的疑問，帶大家深度了解這個冰島北部的觀鯨小鎮---Husavik。相關連結冰島觀鯨海鸚Local Tour 總覽《史上最詳盡冰島旅遊攻略：終極懶人包》《冰島至Hit旅遊景點大集合》觀鯨小鎮胡薩維克－Husavik 我們先從Husavik的介紹開始吧。觀鯨小鎮Husavik 是冰島北部Norðurþing市的一個小鎮，位於Skjálfandi海灣，常居人口大概有2100人左右，在冰島來說是一個相對「大」的鎮了。胡薩維克鎮主要的經濟來源是漁業和旅遊業，還有一小部分來自零售業和小型工業。根據冰島的Landnámabók（book of settletment,定居之書）記載，Husavik是冰島第一個有挪威人定居的地方。為什麼胡薩維克會成為著名的觀鯨小鎮呢？其實這和胡薩維克的地理位置很有關係。Husavik坐擁了一個經常有各種鯨魚會進入的海灣，Skjá

世界一難しい言語？音楽を使いアイスランド語を学ぶ

郷に入っては郷に従え。外国にいる時はその国のマナーや習慣に従わないと。でも、そもそもその国の言葉をある程度理解しない限り、現地で情報を得ることも極めて難しいことになります。そこで私はアイスランドの公立大学、アイスランド大学でアイスランド語を勉強することにしました。物価が高い国として知られているアイスランドでは、ビックリするほど、公立大学での学費が安いです！ ↑アイスランド大学のHPからなんと、授業料が無料で、1年に1回75,000 ISKの学生登録費を支払います。これは進学をするモチベーションにもなりますね(笑) レイキャビクにはアイスランド大学の他にも、私立のレイキャビク大学もありますが、こちらの大学ではアイスランド語学科がありません。しかも、私立大学ですので、授業料が有料で、年間安くても45万クローナがかかります。まぁ、日本の大学の学費と比べると決して高くないですが、アイスランド大学よりも6倍高いので、アイスランド大学で頑張ってみたいと思います( ˘•ω•˘ ) アイスランドの新学期は8月に始まります。大学では2学期制を採用し、8月～12月の「秋学期」と1月～5月の「春学期」の区分けが一般的です。私は2016年の秋学期から大学に通っていますので、今はちょうど2年生になると

Schnorcheln in der Silfra Spalte im Pingvellir Nationalpark

-> Originalblog Artikel unter https://hometravelz.de Meine Frau hatte im Internet darüber gelesen, dass es möglich ist auf Island schnorcheln zu gehen. Aber nicht irgendwo, sondern in einer Spalte zwischen den Kontinentalplatten. Also der Nordamerikanischen und der Eurasischen Platte. So buchten wir über die Seite http://guidetoiceland.is diese Tour. Wir wurden an unserem Hotel abgeholt. Leider stand auf unserem Voucher eine falsche Abholzeit. Aber der Guide kam noch einmal zurück, nach dem er eine andere Touristen abgeholt hatte. S

レイキャビクのハットルグリムス教会の近くに、美味しいパン屋さんがあるって皆さん、知っていますか？ Frakkastígur 16にある、ブロィズ・オ・コ(Brauð og co)という名前のベーカリーです。ハットルグリムス教会への入り口を後ろにし、右手側の下り坂を4分歩くと焼き立てのパンの香りが漂い、エクセントリックな落書きで目立つ外観につい足が止まります。お店のドアに書いてある営業時間が VIRKIR DAGAR / WEEKDAYS : SNEMMA / EARLY - 18:00 HELGAR / WEEKENDS : SNEMMA / EARLY - 17:00 (。´・ω・)・・ん? と思うかもしれませんが、このような不明な開店時間がアイスランド的なビジネスモデルです(笑) お店の中には週替わりのパンが並んでディスプレイされています。最近になってやっとパンに名札が付けられ、指で指す日々が少なくなりました(笑) レジの反対側にガラス張りのオープンキッチンとなり、職人がパンを作っているところをその場で見ることができ大人も子供も夢中になりますヾ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ ↑写真はBrauð

冰島聚焦：Golden Circle 金圈／金環

冰島南部的Golden Circle---金圈，亦稱金環，可以說是冰島旅遊景點經典中的經典，應該是99.9999% 來冰島旅遊的朋友都必去的景點之一。金圈其實是一條冰島南部旅行的路線，由三個景點組合而成，因為這三個景點的位置剛好從雷克雅未克出發，經過這三個景點再回來可以形成一個圈，所以這三個景點就被歸納、統稱為Golden Circle，金圈。而這三個金圈景點分別是：辛格維利爾國家公園(Þingvellir National Park)；Strokkur間歇泉和黃金瀑布(Gullfoss) 。這篇就要為一些準備來冰島玩的朋友好好介紹一下這個冰島旅遊的經典路線：Golden Circle,金圈住宿怎麼安排？自駕怎麼去？有什麼需要帶、衣著應該怎穿？各個景點有什麼玩？總之要到金圈玩，看這篇就夠了。相關連結《冰島至Hit旅遊景點大集合》《史上最詳盡冰島旅遊攻略：終極懶人包》金圈旅行團總覽想去金圈應該住哪裡？由於金圈路線離雷克雅未克非常近，如果你來冰島打算到金圈玩的話，無論你是準備自由行參加Local Tour去金圈，還是自駕遊租車去金圈，我都建議你住在雷克雅未克。最主要的原因當然是因為距離近、很方便。一般來說玩金圈最多只需要一天時間，如果你是自駕遊的話或許還可以在去完有多餘時間去附近的地方例如：藍湖(Blue Lagoon)、溫泉鎮(Hver

Hotel Borg - luksus po islandzku

Hotel to nie wino. Im bardziej posunięty w latach, tym nie zyskuje na smaku i aromacie, wręcz przeciwnie - traci na jakości, zanurza się w rutynę i nudę, niszczeje. Tym bardziej w takiej stolicy, jaką jest Reykjavik, zakurzonej i ciągle podnoszącej się ze słodkiego okresu architektonicznej prostoty lat 70. Jednak należący do sieci KEA Hotels, Borg, zdaje się być hotelem, którego charakter kształtuje przede wszystkim świetna lokalizacja oraz duch, którego posiadać może tylko prawie stuletni budynek. Oficjalnie jednak żaden upiór nie nawiedza ani jednego z ponad stu hotelo

The Revolting Cuisine of Iceland

There are many cultures that have cuisines so delicious, unique and fascinating, they draw visitors from around the world. In the city of Yulin, an annual festival involves the killing and roasting of up to 15,000 dogs, and I cannot recommend the lab-kebab enough. The Korowai People of Papua New Guinea are the world’s last remaining cannibal tribe, and their honey-roasted rib cage is to die for; it literally cannot be recreated. Even in the UK, we congeal the blood and fat of pigs and have the hardened result as part a hearty breakfast, just one part of our international reputat

アークレイリでの乗馬ツアー

観光のほかにも沢山のアクティビティが体験できるアイスランド。その中でも私の大好きなアクティビティが乗馬体験です。アイスランドの馬は小柄でフレンドリー。そんなアイスランドの馬の背に乗って眺めるアイスランドの大自然の風景は、格別です！今回はアークレイリへ旅行にでかけたので、こちらの乗馬ツアーに参加してきました。アークレイリ発｜乗馬ツアー1時間アークレイリの町のはずれ、フィヨルドに面する場所にSkjaldarvikという農場兼ゲストハウスがあります。シンプルなゲストハウスにはカフェもあり、早めについてお茶をしたり散歩をしてもいい感じです。放し飼いの犬やニワトリもいます。バウチャーを見せチェックインをしたら、厩舎へ。この白い馬はガイドさんの。その時のツアー用に用意した馬達の中から、経験によってベストな馬を選んでくれます。私はレイキャビクでの乗馬ツアーも参加したことがあるので、この日は3回目。まだまだ初心者ですが、馬に乗ること自体は怖くはありません。そのことを伝えると、｢うーん、どうしようかなー。じゃぁ、あなたはこのビーティンね！｣と、言われてビーティン号へ案内されました。｢この子はツアーの途中に草を食べる癖があるから、立ち止まらないで歩くように注意をしてね！｣そんなビーティンは、確かに草むらへ来ると一頭だけずーっとモグモグしながら歩いていました。

冰島旅遊安全守則

在人文治安方面來說，冰島是絕對安全的。正如之前我在《在冰島旅行安全嗎？》裡面也和大家分享過為什麼冰島是一個十分安全的國家。但是這並不代表你可以掉以輕心，因為在冰島旅行你最大的敵人不是人類，而是自然。我在Guide to Iceland 上面也看到了不少有關旅行安全、旅行禮儀的文章，都是鼓勵大家成為負責任的旅行者，除了對自己負責，也對維護冰島的自然負責。我覺得這個理念很好，也很重要。所以為了可以成為負責任的博主、為了保障大家都可以安全在冰島遊玩，我在這篇將會為各位清點各種在冰島旅行的「危險」，以我個人的經驗總結出一些子冰島旅行應該留意的安全問題，寫成了十個安全守則指南。希望大家出發冰島前細心閱讀，避開所有危險。特別提醒自駕遊的朋友也要在出發前要詳閱《冰島自駕I 安全須知》，而且確保在出發前把Travel Plan 上傳到冰島搜救中心網頁，以確保萬無一失。守則一：遠離海邊冰島有很多地區都是沿海的，而其中最著名，也是導致最多發生意外的沙灘，就是Reynisfjara黑沙灘。由於黑沙灘上有玄武岩、巨石等奇特的地貌，每年都吸引大量的遊客去一睹為快。當然Reynisfjara黑沙灘的帥氣、好玩是無庸置疑的，《冰島聚焦：南部維克鎮Vik + Reynisfjara 黑沙灘》這篇專題文章裡面也為大家詳細介紹過，可是在它帥氣的背後還是隱藏著很大的危險--巨浪。冰島的風勢十分強烈，風力的強

Calm Water Kayaking by Ísafjörður - the Kayaking Centre of Iceland

I had been travelling for 5 days in the Westfjords of Iceland and had by now reached Ísafjörður, the capital of the Westfjords. I was wondering what to do and see here and checked out the tours available at Borea Adventures. They had several tours to choose from, amongst them a selection of kayaking tours. I had wanted to try out kayaking for the longest time, as I have seen that kayaking has become an increasingly popular sport in Iceland. This was my first time ever to do some kayaking, so I opted for calm water k
