The first rays of sunlight accompany you on your journey to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. And it has a lot to offer: steep cliffs, deep volcanic craters, dramatic waterfalls, and adorable seals. This is exactly what greets you at your first stop at Ytri-Tunga beach. A little further west, Bjarnarfoss plunges 80 meters into the depths, surrounded by moss-covered lava fields. This is precisely what leads you to the solitary Búdakirkja, the Black Church in Búðir. The Black Church stands like a painting in the desolate landscape. Back behind the wheel, you’ll continue to be amazed: from the depths of the narrow Raudfeldsgjá gorge, you reach a stone bridge amid the rugged rocks where the surf batters against the solid stone. On Djúpalónssandur, a black pearl beach, you’ll feel as though you’ve entered another world. The pitch-black sand and an old shipwreck will give you goosebumps. Stairs lead you to another highlight: the Saxholl crater. Your eyes are drawn to the majestic volcanic glacier Snæfellsjökull, proudly dominating the peninsula. Attention, Game of Thrones fans: A stop at Kirkjufell is a must, as behind it lies the famous "Arrowhead Mountain" with the roaring Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall.
Your thirst for adventure wakes you up and you're behind the wheel of your rental car, ready to discover the most beautiful places on the South Coast. Your eyes are glued to the passing landscape until you arrive at your first stop: Seljalandsfoss! The water falls 60 metres deep. Would you like to take a peek behind the waterfall? Yes, that's right! You can walk behind its thundering curtain, but beware, there is a risk of slipping! Your finger on the camera shutter will capture this amazing moment from every angle. Could it get any better? Yes, it can! Skogafoss is even more impressive: When the light is right, two rainbows appear in the water shower - just like in a fairy tale! Did you know that Skogafoss has often been used in films?
Equally breathtaking and beautiful is the village of Vík, which rises above the Mýrdalsjökull glacier near the Katla volcano - your destination today! Stroll along the black beach and enjoy the silence, broken only by the sound of waves crashing on the shore.
