Giardino
Akureyri Botanical Garden
The botanical garden gathers an amazing collection of plants a few kilometers from the polar circle. Its flower paths and its trees show how much microclimate of Akureyri differs from the arid image often associated with Iceland.
Place indismissible
Akureyrarkirkja
Akureyrarkirkja dominates the centre from a large staircase and marks the silhouette of the city. Its sober architecture and stained glass windows offer a short stop before crossing the streets and front of the fjord.
Place indismissible
Húsavík
Húsavík It is organized around a living harbour which has become one of the main bases of whale observation. The excursions allow you to search for cetaceans and birds in the bay of Skjálfandi, with conditions always dependent on the sea.
Place indismissible
Goðafoss
Goðafoss spreads the river Skjálfandafljót into a large arch of clear waterfalls. The paths on both banks offer complementary angles and connect the site to a major episode of Icelandic Christianity.
