Circumnavigating Iceland – The Land of Elves, Sagas and Volcanoes by Hurtigruten
Iceland is a European country and yet so far from its neighbours. Reykjavík, capital of the country, and its surroundings are home to over 2/3 of the population. Different tales have been written over there about elves, gigantic trolls, water monsters, ghosts and others. Surely, we can all understand the reason why when you see the majestic waterfalls, picturesque landscapes, dramatic volcanoes (for some still active) and geysers rising from the ground. All this untouched wilderness and rarity of its fauna participate in nurturing ideas of a magical and unreal environment.
Highlights
- Hiking through lava fields and end enjoying natural hot springs
- Renowned birdwatching places and dramatic landscapes along the way
- Quirky places and wonderful culture and history from the Islanders
