Borgarfjörður and West Iceland
Cascades of lava, hot springs and stories of sagas around Borgarnes and Reykholt.
To understand what Borgarfjörður and Iceland from the West, you must look at Hraunfossar, Deildartunguhver and Reykholt. These places give us a view of a territory marked by riverscapes, heritage, natural spaces and volcanic landscapes and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Must-see place
Hraunfossar
Hraunfossar is not a unique fall: dozens of water nets emerge under a lava field and join a turquoise river. The riverside path gradually reveals this very special mechanism.
Must-see place
Deildartunguhver
Deildartunguhver is an extremely powerful hot source whose steam surrounds the capture facilities. The stop is short but shows concretely how geothermal energy feeds the communities of the west.
Must-see place
Reykholt
Reykholt was the residence of Snorri Sturluson, writer and politician of the sagas. The church, the cultural centre and the small ancient basin place medieval texts in a very real rural landscape.
Museo
Musée de la colonisation
The Settlement Centre of Borgarnes tells of the arrival of the first settlers and the Egill saga with decorations, sounds and stories. It is an excellent introduction to the Icelandic west when weather limits the exits.
