Close to the capital yet away from the bustle, West Iceland is a world where culture, nature and history complement each other, creating a unique Icelandic experience.

This vast area consists of fjords, valleys, craters, glaciers and volcanoes. Travel through historical Borgarfjörður, home to most of the Icelandic sagas and their heroes or venture close to the centre of the earth at Snaefellsjokull glacier or visit Dalir, the cradle of the great explorers, Eiríkur the Red and his son, Leifur the Lucky.

		Nature			History and Culture		Wild Life		The Higlands
			The only problem about the nature in West Iceland is that you need good time to experience it. But that is okay with us, we enjoy spending time with you.		From the settlement until today West Iceland has always been the Sagaland. Join us and we will take you through Icelandic history, everything from the period of the Vikings until today.		Breidafjordur Bay is considered one of Icelands nature pearls and with the coastline of Snaefellsnes to put icing on the cake.		Who could imagine that you could visit the Icelandic Highlands in only 30 minutes from Reykjavík?
