  Abholung

  Your guide will pick you up from your accommodation in your private vehicle at 8 a.m. From there, you will begin the two-and-a-half-hour  journey toward the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. Along the way, you will pass  through the beautiful Icelandic countryside including Hvalfjörður, also  known as the ‘Whale Fjord’.

  The Black Church

  Your first stop of the day will be at Iceland’s famous Black Church- Búðakirkja.  This beautiful church is situated in the middle of an ancient lava  field with Snaefellsjokull Volcano visible on a clear day. The church  dates back to the 18th century and has a fascinating history, having  been destroyed and rebuilt several times over the years. This is a  perfect place to both admire the Icelandic architecture as well as the  surrounding landscape that it sits in. We suggest taking 10 minutes to  walk on one of the many footpaths in the area that lead into the lava  fields.

  Dorf Arnarstapi

  Just 15 minutes from the Black Church, you will come to your next stop, Dorf Arnarstapi.  This quaint fishing village is situated on the edge of a steep cliff  overlooking the ocean and boasts a stunning coastline of basalt  formations and dramatic sea stacks. After exploring the beautiful houses  and harbor of the village, you will be able to take a leisurely walk  along the cliffs to Gatklettur Arch, a natural arch  formation that has been carved out of the surrounding cliffs by the  crashing waves from the Atlantic Ocean over thousands of years. From  there, you can walk further down the rugged coastline and discover a natural land bridge known as Midgja which goes over a small basaltic cove. Stay away if you are afraid of heights!

  Lóndrangar

  Our next stop is Lóndrangar, a massive photogenic  castle-like formation located near the westernmost tip of the  Snaefellsnes Peninsula. This distinctive geological feature is made up  of two volcanic rock pinnacles that rise dramatically out of the  surrounding landscape, reaching heights of 75 and 61 meters  respectively. As we approach Lóndrangar, you’ll notice that the rocks  have been weathered by the elements, creating a unique formation that  adds to the otherworldly feel of the area. Be sure to keep an eye out  for the resident birdlife, including fulmars and kittiwakes, that call  the cliffs of Lóndrangar their home.

  Svöðufoss Waterfall

  Moving towards the northern part of the peninsula now, we will turn onto a dirt road towards a hidden gem known as Svöðufoss Waterfall.  This waterfall is a relatively unknown attraction until recently due to  the official trail to it having just been completed in 2022. This makes  it a perfect place to visit for those looking for a more  off-the-beaten-path experience that most tour companies still don’t  visit. The waterfall itself sports a few smaller falls at the base with  the larger one surrounding a basalt cliff coming down from  Snaefellsjokull. Don’t be afraid to fill your water bottle with some  fresh glacial water while you are here.

  Lunch Break in Olafsvik

  After visiting the falls, we will enter a larger fishing village known as Olafsvik.  This charming town on the northern side of the peninsula has some nice  restaurants that your guide will show you to choose from. We always  recommend trying the fish since it is served fresh from the local  fisherman. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available.

  Kirkjufell-Berg

  We saved the best for last! The final stop on our Snaefellsnes journey will be Iceland’s most famous and photographed mountain, Kirkjufell.  Kirkjufell is often called “the Church Mountain” because of its  distinctive shape, which resembles a church steeple. On top of that, the  landscape in front of the mountain is equally as impressive with double  waterfalls coming down into blue pools to create a magical scene out of  fantasy. This may be the reason that HBO’s Game of Thrones decided to  depict and film season seven’s Arrowhead Mountain at Kirkjufell. Whether  you get a colorful sunset or a snowy white day, Kirkjufell always  provides its guests with a beauty, unlike any other mountain in the  world.

  Abwurf

  We will conclude this tour of Snaefellsnes with a scenic trip back to  Reykjavik via the northern side of the peninsula and then head south  over a mountain pass to complete our loop of Snaefellsjokull National  Park. After the two-and-a-half-hour journey, your guide will drop you  back off at your accommodation with happy memories of your day exploring  miniature Iceland.

  Throughout the tour, your photographer will capture the  beauty of the landscapes and the memories of your trip, so you can relax  and enjoy the sights without worrying about taking photos. At the end  of the journey, you will receive an edited photo package as a keepsake  of your Snaefellsnes Peninsula adventure within 14 days.
