Vestfjordene

Island

The Westfjords of Iceland is a large peninsula in northwestern Iceland. It has a mountainous coastline, heavily indented by dozens of fjords surrounded by steep hills. These fjords make roads circuitous and difficult to drive. The mountain scenery is rugged but specular.

Dynjandi waterfalls are a magnificent sight and is the most commonly visited place for tourists visiting Iceland. This view of the Atlantic ocean opposite to the waterfalls is just as serene as the waterfalls itself. The midnight sun at the horizon is just once a lifetime experience that no one should ever miss if you happen to visit Iceland, the land of Fire and Ice!
Rauðasandur is home to a fantastic little summer music festival, also called Rauðasandur. Attendees camp on a local farm, where concerts are held in a barn in the evenings. 

Rauðasandur is distinguished by its namesake, red sand. This beautiful spot is great for camping and hiking in the summer. Rauðasandur is located in the southwest part of the Westfjords, near Patreksfjörður. #Goldenhour
The drive from Patreksfjörður to Ísafjörður is absolutely spectacular. The Westfjords are a must-see on a summer trip to Iceland. #TroverDetour
