The Picturesque Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon in South Iceland

The Picturesque Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon in South Iceland

Iceland has got some spectacular canyons, one of which is Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon in South Iceland. In this travel-blog I want to show you what this majestic canyon looks like and why it became so popular. Fjaðrárgljúfur is a canyon with quite a unique serpent-like shape and it was not well-known to visitors to Iceland until a few years ago. Don't worry if you cannot pronounce it, it is even difficult for Icelanders to pronounce ;) Top photo: Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon Photo from my 2020 visit. The serpent-shaped ledge in Justin Bieber's video - it is now closed for nature protection There ar

A Winter Visit to the South Coast of Iceland- all the way to Jökulsárlón Glacial Lagoon

A Winter Visit to the South Coast of Iceland- all the way to Jökulsárlón Glacial Lagoon

In this travel-blog I am going to show you what the south coast of Iceland looks like in the wintertime. In other travel-blogs I have shown you what this part of Iceland looks like in the summertime, but it is quite a different experience visiting it in the wintertime. Top photo: Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon I guided 2 sisters, friends of mine from Slovenia, from Reykjavík all the way to Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon in freezing November temperatures. There are some dangers you can encounter when driving on icy roads in wintertime, which you don't encounter in

A Visit to Fnjóskadalur Valley & a Cute Petting Zoo in North-Iceland

In my last travel-blogs, I have been showing you what beautiful treasures Bárðardalur valley has to offer. Now I am going to show you the next valley west of Bárðardalur, the forested Fnjóskadalur valley. Here you will find a beautiful arched bridge, a cute Petting Zoo, and 3 churches. To visit Fnjóskadalur valley you turn on road 833. A new tunnel has been built here; the 7.5 km long Vaðlaheiðargöng tunnel, and ring road 1 now leads through this tunnel instead of the Víkurskarð mountain pass. Opening photo: Fnjóskárbrú bridge Vaðlaheiðargöng tunnel in 2015 It can be quite dangerous

Grettir the Strong and the Troll in the Waterfall - a Viking Saga from North Iceland

Grettir the Strong and the Troll in the Waterfall - a Viking Saga from North Iceland

One of my favourite Icelandic Sagas is Grettisaga - the Saga of Grettir. I read it in college and the longest-living outlaw of the Viking age, Grettir sterki - Grettir the Strong, has since been my favourite character of the Icelandic Sagas. This travel-blog is a side-blog of my travel-blog about Goðafoss waterfall, which was getting to be so long that there was no room for the story of Grettir. Top photo: Goðafoss waterfall Goðafoss waterfall The 64th-66th chapters in the Saga of Grettir tell us about one of Grettir the Strong Ásmundarson's (born around 996) deeds. In the story, the o

The beautiful Goðafoss Waterfall in Skjálfandafljót River in North-Iceland

The beautiful Goðafoss Waterfall in Skjálfandafljót River in North-Iceland

In previous travel blogs, I have been showing you the waterfalls off the beaten path in Bárðardalur in North-Iceland. Now I want to show you the beautiful, historic Goðafoss, which is the best-known waterfall in the approximately 180 km long Skjálfandafljót river, Iceland's 4th longest river. Goðafoss is located right by ring-road 1 and is very accessible. It has got a drop of 12-meters (depending on where you measure it though) and a width of 30-meters and forms a horseshoe shape or a semi-circle. It is divided by big rocks into two waterfalls.

The picturesque Hrafnabjargafoss Waterfall in Skjálfandafljót River in North-Iceland

The picturesque Hrafnabjargafoss Waterfall in Skjálfandafljót River in North-Iceland

In this travel-blog, I want to show you a less visited waterfall in the powdery blue glacial and spring water river Skjálfandafljót. Skjálfandafljót is Iceland's 4th longest river - it originates in Iceland's largest glacier, Vatnajökull, and runs for some 180 km until it reaches the mouth of the river by Skjálfandaflói bay. Along the way, Skjálfandafljót river forms several waterfalls, 3 of the best-known waterfalls are Hrafnabjargafoss, Aldeyjarfoss, and Goðafoss. I want to dedicate this travel-blog to the lovely Hrafnabjargafoss. Top photo: Hrafnabjargafoss waterfall Hrafnabjargafoss

An Elf Woman catches a Ride across Skjálfandafljót River - Icelandic Folklore - Álfkona reidd yfir á

Icelandic folklore contains a myriad of stories of encounters with the elves, who live with us here in Iceland. I found an interesting story on one such encounter in Þjóðsögur Jóns Árnasonar - the Collection of Folklore by Jón Árnason, and translated it into English. The story, which is called Álfkona reidd yfir á - an Elf Woman catches a Ride across a River, happened in Bárðardalur valley in North Iceland, but the 41 km long Bárðadalur valley is best known to travellers for the historical Goðafoss - and for leading to the extraordinary Aldeyjarfoss waterfall.

The Viking Settler Ingólfur Arnarson, Mt. Ingólfsfjall and Ingólfsskáli Turf Longhouse in South Iceland

The Viking Settler Ingólfur Arnarson, Mt. Ingólfsfjall and Ingólfsskáli Turf Longhouse in South Iceland

As those of you, who read my travel-blog know, then I love writing about turf houses, folklore, and the Icelandic Vikings. I recently visited a replica of a Viking turf longhouse erected in honour of Iceland's first settler, Ingólfur Arnarson (844). It is most fittingly called Ingólfsskáli longhouse. In another travel-blog, I told you about the Norwegian settlers Ingólfur and his blood-brother, brother-in-law, and second cousin Hjörleifur, who arrived in Iceland together with their wives, Hallveig and Helga, in their Viking ships around the year 874.

Hiking on Mt. Hestfjall in West-Iceland - a Visit to Andakílsá River and a dip in a Hot pool

In my last 2 travel-blogs, I have been showing you places of interest in West Iceland. I showed you the beautiful waterfall Hvítserkur and the natural hot springs in Lundarreykjadalur among other places of interest. Now I am going to show you the view from Mt. Hestfjall and the waterfall in the river Andakílsá, plus a dip in Hreppslaug pool, which gets its geothermal water from a hot spring close by. Top photo: The view from Mt. Hestfjall - the small hill in the photo is called Fossaborg Mt. Hestfjall This trip was a summer day-tour with friends. I am not an avid hiker, but I joined t
