The best way to visit this area is on a relaxed self-drive tour. One of the best options for doing so is this 7-day Arctic Coast Way self-drive, available in the summer months.
To look at Kjarnaskogur woods today, one would never think that just over half a century ago, there was not a tree in sight. Thanks to the reforestation efforts of Iceland, however, Kjarnaskogur has bloomed across 800 hectares and is now one of the most visited forests in Iceland.

A vast network of trails spread through the area, including 7 km (22,965 ft.) that are lit, giving hikers and nature lovers a great opportunity to explore the woodland at any time of the year. Mountain bikers have a 10 km (32,808 ft.) route they may ride through, and in winter, another 10 km of the walking trails are prepared for the use of cross-country skiers.
Many different bird species make the forest their home, and there is a specialized bird-watching site at the adjacent marsh Hundatjorn. Kjarnaskogur is tailored to appeal to families and large groups as well as individuals; there are picnic areas, barbeque facilities, two play parks, and even a volleyball court.
While Kjarnaskogur is not finished growing, intended to encircle the nearby town of Akureyri, it is already a marvelous forest that validates the efforts the Icelandic people have put into regrowing their woodland and allowing their nature to thrive.
