    Tips

    A small hidden gem on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, at the foot of the Ytri-Rauðamelskúlur volcano (222 m). Built in 1916, this white wooden Lutheran church with a red roof is surrounded by a volcanic rock wall that protects it from the wind. Its simple interior reflects rural Icelandic life from over a century ago. Perfect for a photo stop and to experience the calm of the Icelandic countryside.

    Tip: Come at sunset to see how the sun tinges the red roof and the volcano behind it.
