Below, we’ve highlighted some of our favorite spots in and around Reykjavik.
Reykjavik
- Hallgrimskirkja a Lutheran church with unusual modern structural elements, standing at nearly 250 feet in downtown Reykjavik; from up here, you can get expansive of the capital’s cityscape. An elaborate 25-ton organ dominates the interior.
- Culture House is a deep dive into Icelandic lore, featuring exhibits on medieval writings, Norse mythology, and the Poetic Edda manuscript, which inspired Tolkien’s dwarf characters in The Hobbit.
- Gulfloss is about an hour and a half from Reykjavik, but it’s worth the journey. These white-capped falls cascade down two ledges surrounded by carpeted green hillsides.
- Nauthólsvík Beach: As the weather gets colder, the hot pools around this lagoon stay warm; in fact, they stay that way year round, as the ocean water is mixed with hot geothermic water.
- Local lingo: “Hvernig segir maður … á íslensku?” which means, “How do you say…?” in Icelandic
- Icelandic eats: Pylsur, Iceland’s popular lamb hot dog, is best ordered topped with sweet mustard and deep fried onions. Arctic salmon and lobster are often feature heavily on menus.<p>
