  • The Best of Iceland
    04_178416-ch01.qxp 5/29/08 8:59 AM Page 1 1 The Best of Iceland On each trip to Iceland, we are always struck by how often other travelers are—or intend to be—repeat visitors. Many come year after year, never exhausting Iceland’s endless variations of magnificent scenery and adventure. Returning travelers immedi- ately recognize the crisp, invigorating polar air, and what W. H. Auden called “the most magical light of anywhere on earth.” Iceland’s astonishing beauty often has an austere, primitive, or surreal cast that arouses reverence, wonderment, mystery, and awe. Lasting impressions could include a lone tuft of wildflowers amid a bleak desert moonscape or a fantastical promenade of icebergs calved into a lake from a magisterial glacier. The Icelandic people—freedom-loving, egalitarian, self-reliant, and worldly—are equally exceptional. They established a parliamentary democracy over a millennium ago, and today write, publish, purchase, and read more books per capita than any peo- ple on earth. Reykjavík, their capital, has become one of the world’s most fashionable urban hot spots. In November 2007, the U.N. named Iceland the world’s best coun- try to live in, based on life expectancy, education levels, medical care, income, and other criteria. 1 The Best Natural Wonders • Glymur: Iceland’s tallest waterfall is • Blue Lagoon: The central activity nimble and graceful: Streamlets at this spa—Iceland’s top tourist descend like ribbons of a maypole attraction—is bathing in a shallow, into a fathomless canyon mantled in opaque, blue-green lagoon amid a bird nests and lush mosses.

  • Itinerary - Iceland Ring Road Essentials - 7 Days
    Itinerary - Iceland Ring Road Essentials - 7 Days DAY 1: REYKJAVÍK TO THE NORTHWEST The first day of the tour takes you from Reykjavík to the northwest of Iceland. You pass through Hvalfjörður fjord, one of Iceland's largest and most picturesque fjords, where you could add a couple of hours to your trip and hike up to Iceland's highest waterfall, Glymur, at 198 m. You will spend most of your day enjoying the wonders of the Borgarfjörður area, such as Deildartunguhver, the most powerful natural hot spring in the world; Grábrók crater, which offers an easy and accessible hiking opportunity; and two beautiful waterfalls, 1 Hraunfossar and Barnafoss, close to the road. Furthermore, you visit one of Iceland’s most important historical sites, Reykholt, where the famous writer and political leader Snorri Sturluson (1179-1261), author of the Snorra-Edda, lived and was subsequently killed. You could then go swimming in the recreational area of Húsafell before carrying on your journey over the Holtavörðuheiði highland route where, on a clear day, there are good views towards several mountains and glaciers. Once in the northwest, there is a great chance of spotting seals and several species of birds. DAY 2: FROM THE NORTHWEST TO THE CAPITAL OF THE NORTH, AKUREYRI Wake up in the peace and quiet of your accommodation in Northwest Iceland. If you didn't get a chance the day before, why not see if you can spot any seals by the coast? Once on the road, you will visit Kolugljúfur gorge with many waterfalls and pass through a few pretty towns and villages, some with interesting museums, such as the textile museum in Blönduós.
