Travel Guide

ATV trip with Arcanum was highlight of our day (even though this was the day we saw the "big" waterfalls) rode along the ocean, through rivers, up hills, to whale bones and 'the' plane wreck. The wind was insane and there was driving sleet, weather we would never go out in at home, but we were toasty in our suits and never noticed the elements!
The famous Sólheimasandur Plane Crash - somewhat eerie but very cool to see. Definitely worth a detour ! Instructions on how to get here will be up on the blog in upcoming weeks. #WATravels #MyStopover
Icelanders have spent generations breeding their horses (the only type of horse allowed in the country) to withstand Iceland's unpredictable, and often bad weather and to be able to walk easily through the country's uneven, rocky terrain. They have a thick coat, are very friendly, and have two unique gaits, called tölt and flugskeið. You see them everywhere in the countryside, even more than cows! We saw this handsome guy on our drive between Skógafoss and Vík.

Loved this guest house! It was so cute! We were initially a little worried about the shared bathroom but we never had any issues or ever had to wait for a bathroom to be open. The breakfast that is included was amazing and the staff was so nice. Highly recommend!

So incredibly clean! Easy check in and out. Very convenient location directly across from grocery store, the popular Black Crust pizza, and the gear store (outlet is upstairs with surprisingly good prices). The washing machine/dryer are essential if you’re on a long trip. Highly recommend!
