Get lost in Iceland's East Fjords region

Looking to soak up Iceland’s peace and quiet? The East Fjords region is where rustling leaves and lapping water will be your only companions during your trek. Surrounded by steep rock walls and volcanoes, these sea water-filled glacial valleys boast being off the beaten track. We recommend embarking on a nature hike to see the turquoise waters in Stórurð Valley and the breathtaking Hengifoss Waterfall. Here is where you can bask amid beautiful panoramas as the water takes center stage.

If you prefer to meet the locals and discover the tranquility of life in the fjords, opt for staying in one of the region’s quaint villages. Witness green landscapes that stretch as far as the eye can see and admire the charming colorful houses by the water's edge in both Seyðisfjörður and Stöðvarfjörður.
