A modern white church overlooking the Hólmavík fjord. Its wooden interior and silence invite you to take a peaceful break while the sea lies at your feet. From here, the fishing village and its boats look like a postcard.

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.
