The "Little Lake" gives city people the opportunity to stay in touch with nature. The winter ice is visited by about 40 bird species. Children enjoy feeding them while their parents follow the beautiful path along the shore.

Lake Tjörnin is idyllically situated in the middle of the capital Reykjavik, and is a popular destination in the capital. In winter you can skate on the frozen lake.
