    Hiking

    The parade garden founded in 1912 by a Danish woman (Mrs. Schiöth) is the highlight of Akureyri. The garden, which also serves as a public park, is free of charge and in very good condition. Flower lovers cannot fail to be amazed. There is a new surprise around every corner. It is not only worked with nuances in the play of colors, but the plants are also staged individually. I was really enthusiastic about the large number of gentian varieties. 🥰

    The park was founded in 1912, but the botanical garden was not born until 1957. Admission is free and walks here are just wonderful.
