A small fishing village in the West Fjords of Iceland, famous for its witchcraft museum and the tranquility that surrounds it. Amidst colorful houses, stranded boats, and a painted-on fjord, time stands still here. Perfect for strolling, soaking up the salty air, and feeling like you're at the end of the world. If you're lucky, you'll see seals resting near the harbor.

Easy to reach from the small parking area. There is a sign with some historical background in different languages at the parking area down at the street. From there: On the left you can hike like a hundred meters over two small bridges to the waterfall. It is beautiful there as in the pictures. Looking back will grant you the view to the north atlantic sea and a farm nearby. Seems to be less known and not much visited but is one of the nicest waterfalls I have seen in my travel around Iceland. No special footwear or gear required, parking for free nearby.

Amazing valley, compact gravel all the way. The descent on the Króksfjardarnes side is simply so much fun. A beautiful mini canyon, a waterfall, and really flowy gravel descent. Beware: If you ride this gravel pass from the Hólmavik side, there are 2 river crossings which are manageable but should be respected.

https://www.iceland.de/virtuelle-islandreise/nordwestisland/drangajoekull/ The Drangajökull glacier is located southwest of the Hornstrandir nature reserve. At around 200 square kilometers, it is the smallest of the larger glaciers in Iceland and is the only plateau glacier in the country that lies at an altitude of less than 1,000 meters. Due to its small size and low altitude, one might think that the Drangajökull is particularly threatened by climate change. In fact, however, it is the only plateau glacier in the country that has not decreased in recent years, while most of Iceland's other glaciers have lost more or less significant amounts of ice mass.

There is a beautiful view of the glacier from Kaldalón Bay.
