Aldeyjarfoss
Aldeyjarfoss waterfall is considered the most beautiful one in the river Skjalfandafljot. The waterfall is framed with long, natural basaltic columns. It is located in the uppermost regions of the Bardardalur Valley, on the Sprengisandur highland route.
Akureyri
Akureyri, Iceland’s little big city, offers a perfect blend of entertainment, art, and culture while providing a personal and close-to-nature experience. The city’s charm is undeniable with its brightly painted wooden houses, cozy bars, and steep streets leading down from the hills into the welcoming city centre.
Egilsstaðir
Egilsstaðir is the thriving hub of the east, boasting the largest population in the region and offering all the services a traveller could require. Its sister town, Fellabær, is just across the bridge; together, they are home to almost 3000 inhabitants. Foodies will delight in Egilsstaðir’s local cuisine, with farm-fresh produce and locally-brewed beer available.
Katla Geopark
Katla Geopark is Iceland’s premier geopark, offering visitors access to a breathtaking natural wonderland. The park strongly emphasises preserving the environment, promoting local, sustainable development, and celebrating the surrounding culture, all while providing unparalleled opportunities for nature tourism.
Reykjavík
Reykjavík’s downtown is the heart of Iceland’s culture and arts scene. During the day, the café culture thrives, with lively conversations filling the air. As evening approaches, people flock to the city’s excellent restaurants to savour delicious lamb, seafood, or wild game made with local ingredients.
