Nearby lies Snaefellsnes Peninsula National Park, with the striking, ice-capped Snaefellsjokull volcano at the peninsula's western tip.

Djupavik, Iceland

Explore a ghostly factory and hike in magical surroundings. There is an eerie charm about the remote village of Djupavik, at the edge of the Westfjords. A vast abandoned herring factory contrasts with a stunning rural setting. A guided tour of the old herring factory should not be missed. Inside its cavernous interior, huge machines rust away quietly, and the workers' everyday objects sit forgotten on their desks. Explore these magical surroundings on foot and take a short and invigorating hike to the waterfall just above the old factory. Looking down to the shore, you may spot the old, rusting ship from a previous era. This truly is a place of contrasts. ...

If you're lucky, you might see one or more of these giants at sea, and you can learn more about them at the Husavik Whale Museum. Husavik is also regarded as the gateway to many of the highlights of the north, including Jokulsargljufur National Park, the waterfall of Dettifoss, and the horseshoe-shaped valley of Asbyrgi, which according to Icelandic myth was made by Odin's eight-legged horse.
