Behind the little village of Flateyri the street continues along the peninsula. It's a small little dirt road which leads even further out of the fjord.

Photography Tips

Just split the landscape in half, having a nice leading line and not missing out much on the mountains.

Travel Information

Getting around the Westfjords in winter and early spring can be challenging, as many mountain roads are closed or only accessible with a 4x4 vehicle equipped with winter tires. Weather conditions change quickly, so it’s essential to check updates from the Icelandic Road and Coastal Administration and Icelandic Meteorological Office before traveling. Distances are long, services are sparse, and driving in daylight is recommended due to limited visibility and icy conditions.
