All about the trip

The Hornstrandir Nature Reserve is a truly special place. At the very north of the Westfjords, it is knocking on the door of the Arctic Circle and has a very ‘out there’ feeling, as the only way to get there is by boat. There have been no permanent residents on the peninsula since the early fifties and so it’s very raw and untouched.

This tour is a perfect way to explore Hornstrandir if one day is all you have. We explore a very remote part of the peninsula which includes pristine hiking, breathtaking views, and diverse wildlife. To top it off, we have a delicious home-cooked dinner in a beautifully restored farmhouse that was originally built in 1921.

For years, an Arctic fox family has had their den in the farmhouse’s backyard and the cubs usually get curious when guests appear.

Instructions

Please arrive at the meeting point 30 minutes before departure time.

What to take with you?

Please bring warm outdoor clothing, waterproof jacket and pants, hat and gloves. Avoid cotton as it keeps you cold when wet and takes a very long time to dry. Please wear hiking boots that provide ankle support. Bring your sunhat, sunglasses, and sunscreen, as it can get sunny up there. Don't forget your water bottle, energy snacks, lunch, and camera.
